You thought the Bears ran the ball well this week? Woo boy, Ben's gotta be licking his chops thinking about all the ways they can run right at Micah Parsons this week and overpower him. Chance to take a 2 game lead in the division with a win. Hopefully they get Edwards and Sewell back next week. LFG!

We have a coaching superstar.

And of course our defense implodes in a gotta have it situation. We can never just win easy.

HELL YEAH!!!!!!! BEAUTIFUL DRIVE!!!

Yes! One more long scoring drive, and that might do it. Run, run, run!

This is maybe the most imposing game I think I've ever seen a team have running the ball. It feels like a college game.

Please don't throw anymore. Just run with Swift/Monangai. Finish this drive off with 7, hold them on defense, and play ball control the rest of the way.

Embarrassing quarterback play. I'm so done with him.

Right on cue. This is exactly what happens when you don't put away a team begging you to put them away. This is 1000000% on Caleb Williams

We're nearing Tebow levels of ineptness with this pass game. It's so bad. Also, he needs to pick up the damn 1st down with his legs and stop being so damn soft. He slides 2-3 yards before he should.

Byard!

Pass game is just shitting this win down their legs at this point. This is pathetic.

Eagles offense is broken. Bears MUST push this to a 2 score game, like now.

I don't know why Philly isn't just stacking the line and forcing Caleb to beat them in this wind. Seems like the obvious move they should be making at halftime.

11/24 for Caleb that half. League average completion % is in the mid 60's. His inaccuracy continues to be alarming. Two missed touchdowns to wide open receivers that half. Eagles were begging the Bears to blow them out but Caleb missing throws is keeping them from running away with it.

Might be a game you run, run, pass until the Eagles adjust. Ben getting away from the run on that last drive. If you're going to do that, at least run some boots to get the quarterback in a running position to at least pick up yards if nothing's there.

Caleb is below 50% completion. Just terrible.

Jaylon making his first big play. Big stop. Gotta end this half with points. Need another long drive.

Two inexcusable misses from Caleb already that would have been wide open touchdowns. Can't happen against this team.

Is that CJGJ at LB'er?

Hell yeah! What a drive! Should be up 10-0/14-0!

Not even a quarter in and the Bears already get screwed by the officiating. Zero evidence to overturn the spot there, and of course the officials overturn it anyway because it's the Bears.

Playing with house money today. LFG!

Yeah. If DET loses to DAL, they have the Rams the following week. They'd be 7-7 by then. Hard to see them coming back from that. On the flipside, if DAL does beat DET, the Chargers are the only team standing in the way of DAL winning out barring some crazy upset by WAS, NYG, or MIN, who'll be in tank/vacation mode. Bears would either have to get to 12 wins, or they have to beat SF and maybe DET in the final two weeks, hope SF loses at least one more, so the Bears win the tiebreaker at 11-6 to keep them out.

Much like the last game, our opponents are getting healthier just as the Bears are getting more beaten up. I'm really surprised Devonta Smith is playing after not practicing at all this week with injuries and being sick. As much as the media wants to rag on the Bears for how many backup/journeyman QB's they've faced, the Bears have always been the more injured team just about every week of the season so far. As for the game, the deciding factor is probably going to be whether the Bears can stop Philly on the ground. I worry about Hurts' legs just as much as Barkley's. If they let them gash them up for large chunks all game, this one could get ugly. If they can hold them in check, I don't anticipate Hurts being able to throw the ball all over the field against our secondary with Johnson and Gordon back. Have to keep them out of the redzone, because that's where they are the most dangerous. On offense, the Bears have to get back to running the ball efficiently. That hasn't been the case since the Bengals game, really. This is the same defense that held Jared Goff below 40% completion % a couple weeks ago. With Caleb's accuracy issues, I worry how ugly the passing game could look if they aren't able to run the ball. He has to be able to hit all his open receivers today. Has to.
