There is no way around it, Khalil Mack is an absolute monster. The 2016 defensive player of the year is showing everyone in the league that the record-breaking contract he signed just two offseason ago might be a discount for what he brings to the table.

Living in the opponent's backfield, Mack was able to get to Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins and cause a strip sack as the Bears were able to recover the ball in Vikings territory.

Who knows what defensive coordinator Chuck Pagano said to Mack coming out of the halftime break, but whatever it was it worked to a T. Mack's speed coming around the edge is unmatched as Minnesota offensive linemen Riley Reiff stood little chance.

The Bears defense is in the midst of shutting out the Cousins and the Vikings as they have held rushing leader Dalvin Cook to only 21 yards on the ground.
