He was also starting his first game after missing 2 games due to a shoulder injury to his throwing arm.

Probably not the best game to judge him on.

Not to mention the Rams pass rush is much better than Philly’s.

But it's not. You must not watch many Eagles games. While they struggled in the first half of season, they're now playing like they did last year. That front is talented.

In recent weeks no, I haven’t watched a lot of Philly.

FWIW the Bears had zero issues in protection against the Rams and that was without Long, who returned yesterday. Long should also especially help the run game for the Bears.

Eagles o-line finally has their mojo back. Its going to be an interesting battle in the trenches

Bears 27-10.

Foles with 3 turnovers and there are no more questions about Wentz v Foles.

Nothing against the Bears but I like it when defending champs show their moxie, especially against long odds. Look, this is Rocky 5, and Tommy Gunn should in theory beat the **** out of him, but Rocky don't care, he didn't hear no bell. I fully expect this to be a 3-point game with a great ending.

The defense and field conditions will be too much for Philly, I think. Bears in a low scoring game.

If this is a close game, I like the Eagles as their punter and kicker are better. Probably going to a field position low scoring game.

They finally fixed the field so on a dry day the turf won’t be an issue.

I can’t think of a game all season where it’s been an issue.

Good news for Eagles then.

Good news for both teams. The better the turf the better it’ll be for Cohen, Gabriel, Robinson, and Trubisky if he can gain some confidence running the ball again.

Forecast calls for 44 and dry.
Yeah. Don't know why that's even a question.


It's going to come down to turnovers. There is a healthy disparity between the two teams for this season, but the Eagles defense has been coming on with regard to takeaways. Neither team's offense scores more than 20 imo.

Kicking will not decide this game!
