Brett Favre is back in the starting lineup for the Minnesota Vikings.
All the talk this week from the Bears' players about the change of venue for the Bears-Vikings Monday night game, has been negative. But history tells us that it could still be better than the alternative.
This afternoon, the Vikings added intrigue to the mix for tonight's game when they announced that Brett Favre has been upgraded from "Out" to "Questionable."
The latest in conditional controversy has come down from on high for the Bears - Vikings game Monday night.
So maybe Brett Favre isn't quite done yet. The Minnesota Vikings said Favre has been upgraded to questionable for Monday night's game against the Chicago Bears.
The Bears may not be excited about playing at TCF Bank Stadium tonight, but that's really the only thing that hasn't gone well for them this past week.
There's a saying in the NFL, that on any given Sunday, any team can win the game. While the Vikings and Bears might be having two different seasons, either team could win tonight.
The Minnesota Vikings have had a terrible season. There have been many off-field, and on-field, distractions to go along with the poor play. But, if the Bears aren't focus and sharp, the Vikings could come out on top.
With the Packers' loss last night to the New England Patriots, the Bears can now clinch the NFC North title, and a spot in the playoffs.
The Bears are ready to play in a frigid day on a hopefully thawed field. The question, however, is are the Vikings? Minnesota hasn't played an outdoor home game since 1981 and the Metrodome's collapsed roof moved the game to TCF Bank Stadium.
