* VIKINGS 36, BEARS 10: At Minneapolis, Brett Favre (32-for-48)
passed for a season-high 392 yards and three touchdowns, and Minnesota (10-1) intercepted Jay Cutler twice in a rout of Chicago (4-7). Favre was 10 yards off his career best, throwing touchdowns to Visanthe Shiancoe, Chester Taylor and Percy Harvin, the unflappable rookie who had his best game yet.
