How to watch Chicago Bears vs. Minnesota Vikings game for NFL Week 11
The Minnesota Vikings (4-5) take on the Chicago Bears (6-3) at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis in Week 11 of the 2025 NFL season on Sunday afternoon. There are several ways fans can watch and stream the NFC North matchup.
The two teams squared off in the first week of the regular season, with Minnesota coming out on top, 27-24. It marked the NFL debut of Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who threw two fourth-quarter touchdown passes and ran for another during the game.
Since that time, McCarthy has dealt with a sprained right ankle that kept him out for five games, and Minnesota has won only three of their last eight.
The Vikings are coming off a 27-19 home loss to the Baltimore Ravens, committing 13 penalties, including eight false-starts, in the matchup. Wide receiver Justin Jefferson feels like he and the team are underachieving, and says he needs to get back to his "old self."
"Just trying to work back into that, the feeling of being out there on Sundays and going out there and just killing it, whoever's in front of me," Jefferson said. "It's just going out there with that 'eff it' mentality and just going out there and just killing it and not worrying about the plays, not worrying about anything else that I, just like you said, can't control."
The Bears, since Week 1, have won six of their last eight, including a 24-20 victory over the New York Giants in Week 10. Head coach Ben Johnson said his team has taken big steps forward since his first regular-season game with Chicago.
"We've found out a lot about ourselves over the course of the season so far. We're a different team than we were Week 1, and so is Minnesota," he said. "We're running the ball a little bit crisper and cleaner. I think the backs have a better feel for what we're asking them to do. The O-line is starting to gel. I think Caleb's got a better understanding of what we're getting done."
Chicago will be without a few key players as they try to avenge the Week 1 loss, with cornerbacks Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon on injured reserve. Linebacker T.J. Edwards and safety Jaquan Brisker did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday due to injuries, according to the team.
