Bears-Vikings MNF: Open thread and gambling picks

Come scout the Raiders’ next opponent

Week 12 ends with an NFC North matchup on Monday Night Football featuring the Las Vegas Raiders’ next opponent with the Minnesota Vikings hosting the Chicago Bears.

Kickoff is scheduled for 5:15 p.m. PT and the game will air on ESPN. Also, DraftKings Sportsbook is offering lines and prop bets for tonight’s game as the spread, total and moneylines are listed below.

• Spread: MIN -3
• O/U: 43.5
• MIN ML: -162
• CHI ML: +136

For the injury report, the Bears have ruled out cornerback Tyrique Stevenson (ankle), linebacker Noah Sewell (knee), and running backs D’Onta Foreman (ankle/shin) and Khari Blasingame (shoulder).

The Vikings had wide receiver Justin Jefferson (hamstring) listed as questionable on Saturday’s report but, per NFL media’s Tom Pelissero, the team is playing it safe with Jefferson and will hold him out for one more game. Jefferson will use the bye week to get back 100 percent and then play against the Raiders on Dec. 10. Meanwhile, cornerback Akayleb Evans (calf) and defensive tackle Khryiris Tonga (knee) are questionable.

Since the game is in Minnesota, it will be played in a dome meaning weather won’t be a factor.
