The Chicago Bears and the Minnesota Vikings will be facing off on Monday Night Football in Week 15, 19 days after the first meeting between the two division rivals.

Last time, both fans were in for a treat after rookie quarterback Caleb Williams led the Bears on back-to-back scoring drives before ultimately crumbling apart in overtime.

Enough time has passed for both teams to create new adjustments for each other this time around. For the Bears, the most intriguing matchup will again be Williams playing against Vikings' defensive coordinator Brian Flores and his fierce defensive unit.

The last time Williams faced Flores' unit, he proved to be a rebel, resisting what usually happens to young quarterbacks against the top defensive mind. Williams had a career day in Week 12 throwing for over 300 yards and leading the team in rushing yards on the ground.

I spoke with our A to Z Sports Vikings writer Tyler Forness to see what changes Williams and the Bears offense should personally make and what changes to expect from Flores' defense in the second matchup between these two teams.

How will Brian Flores look to adjust his pass rush this week to find ways to hit home more often against Caleb Williams?

"The simple answer is also the complicated one: varying the blitzes and stunts. Their personnel isn’t going to be different outside of Pat Jones II potentially missing his second straight game, but rookie Gabe Murphy played well in his place last week in his NFL debut…

With how Williams likes to win, I wouldn’t be surprised to see more man coverage with Blake Cashman spying Williams and using a four man pass rush to try and force Williams into mistakes by bailing the pocket too early and Cashman can clean up."

Are there legitimate concerns in the Vikings' secondary that Caleb Williams can look to exploit?

"The secondary is in an interesting spot heading into Monday night’s matchup. The Vikings could be missing Stephon Gilmore for the second-consecutive week with a hamstring injury. However, without Gilmore the Vikings are playing more man coverage than before and that could be very impactful on the game against the Bears. Byron Murphy Jr. and Shaquill Griffin have both played really well over the last two weeks…

At the end of the day, yards don’t matter to the Vikings. They are fine letting you dink and dunk to accrue yards. They will stop you from scoring points."

How can the Bears look to get specifically the RBs more productive this week against the Vikings?

"The Vikings run defense overall is really good, but they got taken advantage of somewhat last week against the Falcons. While they allowed 158 yards overall, the Falcons averaged just 4.9 yards per carry…

The key to getting more yards is to block well up front. The defensive line for the Vikings isn’t one that does a great job of rushing the passer, but they are ass-kickers in the trenches. Jonathan Bullard, Harrison Phillips and Jalen Redmond are a force in stopping the running game and will need to be blocked in order to get the run game going."
