Bears vs. Vikings Live Updates: Scores, Stats, Highlights, and Injuries from Monday Night Football

 Defense has been the key so far in Minnesota, where the Vikings lead the Bears 13-0 at halftime in a division matchup.


The Vikings' defense made a big play on the first drive when Jonathan Greenard and Jerry Tillery stopped D'Andre Swift on fourth-and-1. Minnesota turned that stop into a field goal by Will Reichard.


The defense made another big play soon after when Greenard forced a fumble on a sack of Caleb Williams. The Vikings' offense took advantage, with Sam Darnold throwing a 7-yard touchdown pass to Justin Jefferson late in the first quarter.


Chicago's defense has tried to keep the Bears in the game. Tyrique Stevenson intercepted Darnold deep in Chicago territory, but the Bears' offense couldn’t do anything with it. Swift was stopped again on another fourth-down try late in the half.


 The Vikings took advantage of the stop and added another field goal from Reichard before halftime.
