Philadelphia Eagles (2-0) at Chicago Bears (1-1)
Monday, 8:15 p.m. ET
FanDuel odds: Eagles -4.5, Total 41.5
Series Rewind: The Eagles have won their last three games at Soldier Field, including a 16-15 wild-card victory on Jan. 6, 2019. The Bears racked up 425 yards in last season’s 24-15 Black Friday win in Philadelphia.
Philadelphia extended its September winning streak to six games with a last-minute touchdown drive at Tennessee in Week 2. It was the eighth fourth-quarter comeback by Jalen Hurts since 2023, second in the NFL over that span to Green Bay’s Jordan Love (nine). Hurts does have a losing record (5-6) on “Monday Night Football,” however, with 15 interceptions and just nine touchdown passes. Saquon Barkley, on the other hand, has at least 100 scrimmage yards in five straight Monday nighters. The Eagles brought back Zach Ertz this week after losing fellow tight end Dallas Goedert to a knee injury. Injury was the word of the week in Chicago’s locker room, where QB1 Caleb Williams (hamstring) and QB2 Tyson Bagent (concussion) may have to watch QB3 Case Keenum shake the rust off his 38-year-old arm in prime time. With wideout Rome Odunze off to a slow start (five catches, 95 yards), the Bears may need to lean on D’Andre Swift, who rushed for more than 1,000 yards in a Pro Bowl season for Philly in 2023.
