The Chicago Bears will battle their NFC North rivals Minnesota Vikings in Week 2, where Chicago will look to start the season at 2-0 as they play their first game of the season at Soldier Field.
The Bears’ Week 2 game will air on FOX at 12 p.m. CT on Sunday afternoon. The television commentators for the game are Joe Davis (play-by-play), Greg Olsen (analyst) and, Pam Oliver (sideline).
The Bears are coming off an historic 59-37 win over the Carolina Panthers in their season opener, where quarterback Caleb Williams and the offense exploded for eight touchdowns and 552 yards in what was a near-flawless performance. Chicago totaled 291 rushing yards behind D'Andre Swift, Kyle Monangai and Williams, and there's plenty to be excited for on offense.
Unfortunately, there's still plenty to clean up for this Bears defense that gave up 37 points, 478 yards and struggled to contain Bryce Young.
Meanwhile, the Vikings are coming off a 39-22 win over the Green Bay Packers, where Minnesota mounted an impressive comeback where they scored 29 points in the second half to send Green Bay to their sixth straight loss dating back to last season. The Packers had led 22-10 in the third quarter before a complete and utter collapse. And it happened with Vikings backup quarterback Carson Wentz leading the way after Kyler Murray went out with a concussion.
