Vikings improve to 2-0 after defeating Bears in close matchup

Summary

The Minnesota Vikings secured a narrow victory against the Chicago Bears on September 20, improving their record to 2-0.

Dallas Turner ended the game with a crucial sack on Bagent, preventing a potential game-winning play. The Vikings' offense, led by Carson Wentz, managed to score just nine points but did enough to hold on for the win. Minnesota will next play the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on September 27.
