Without possibly the top wide receiver in football, the Minnesota Vikings still give the Bears matchup problems.
The Bears will play their pass coverage more honestly in Sunday's game than they have in the past against the Minnesota Vikings.Whether it works could hinge upon how well they keep rookie receiver Jordan Addison in check, or tight end T.J. Hockenson.
The Bears normally liked to cheat their coverage to the side of the field where Justin Jefferson is, although it often hasn't helped. Now with Jefferson out injured it's more of a straight-up defensive approach. Hoke went through this plenty in his stint with the Bears under coach Lovie Smith in a scheme much like this one.
