It’s Amazon week with the Bears playing in front of an international audience at the recently phlaundering Eagles. The natives are restless for the defending champs, and there’s a good chance Philly comes out blazing as touchdown favorites to quiet the doubters. I have to imagine the eagles offense will be explosive against the beaten down Bears defense. Despite some heroic efforts against a slew of mediocre teams, Chicago has surrendered the 6th most points per game this season, at 26.5. Philly is 8th best at just 20.5. Chicago does have a top ten scoring offense, again, against mediocre to bad competition for the most part. Philly is right in the middle at 23.2 PPG. They have been terribly inconsistent, scoring 30+ 3 times then going back to back with 10 and 16 points, in wins over NFC north teams. They score three first half touchdowns against Dallas before shutting down completely.
I think if Philly wants to they can win this one handily. But I don’t know what their major malfunction has been this season. Hopefully they don’t bounce back strong from a terrible division loss on short rest.
