Do the visiting Chicago Bears have a chance on Sunday? Let's take a look at what some of the Bears' fans have to say about Sunday's regular season finale match-up.

What they're saying...
One last look at the roster bubble.
First game for Mitch this year was against the Vikings. Last one will be too. Great way to see if Mitch has really grown in this short season.
I would love to see the Bears beat the 12-3 Vikings -- who will be playing for a playoff bye to skip the Wildcard round, and I'd assume also playing for home field advantage through the playoffs.
And I can tell, the Bears want to win. Are they over matched? Yes, basically, but the Bears can be competitive, and that's enough to win a game if the ball goes your way.

Vikings will be fighting for a first round bye.
That means we're f*cked... I just hope Mitch doesn't get killed and we get out of there relatively healthy.
Vikings - 24
Bears - 14

No way we win this one. Only question is the margin of loss. Minny need a win to get the #2 seed. Lose and they could end up at #5. They'll bring their A-game. Could be a bad day at the office for Trubs.

I think it'll be feisty, but what's done is done. Vikings defense is vicious

I think we play admirably, and the guys attempt to go out on a strong-note for the staff.
I also hope Trubisky has a resounding finish.
At this point, draft positioning is somewhat gone. We're stuck in that 7-12 grey area, so I'd love to see us finish the season off winning 3 of 4. However, it just ain't happening... we're over-matched and they actually need this game.
We hang tough for a half, and they slowly pull away in the 2nd. We add a garbage time score at the end.

How about this as the #1 goal in the game?
Trubisky with no turnovers vs the league's top defense. That would really be impressive to me, and be a big sign of development.

I am not expecting to see any progression from Trubisky this game against that D, but I am hoping not to see any regression, mainly because it's the last game. I'm ready for this Bears season to end. I was a bit negative, and turns out rightly so, last off-season. Despite the crappy season I think, barring a giant dumbass move, I will be a bit more optimistic this coming off season.
I'm not so sure the Bears have no shot. The Vikes will be playing for the #2 seed, but they didn't exactly set the world on fire against GB. If the Bears can play great defense and convert on some 3rd downs, I think there's a chance.
That said, I'll go with:

It would be very Bearsish to win and screw themselves with higher draft pick. So they will win. I'll be happy when we win but sour come draft day.
Vikings come in overconfident. Bears somehow win.

Unless this starts to turn into the J'Marcus Webb v Jared Allen game, I'd like to see Biscuit play the whole game even though this defense could tee off on him.
That being said, unless the Vikes just totally screw up or there's a freak play or call I just don't see the Bears winning this one.

Don't really care about this game. Loggains will probably still piss us off with his inconsistent play calling. Just open the sh*t up and go for broke, nothing to lose here.
I would like to see a redo of their first meeting, except this time Trubisky leads the team to a game winning TD. He needs this bad, every time the team has needed him to come up big, he has failed. IMO, the clutch gene is all this kid is missing. This is the only thing that worries me, you usually can't teach that. Going out with a win over that defense would go far for his confidence.
There you have it!
