This bet is less about the Bears and more about our distrust of this Eagles team. That distrust starts on the defensive end of the ball, where the Eagles rank twentieth in yards allowed per game (340.1). They have also struggled to get off the field on third down, ranking 22nd with a 40.6% opponent success rate.
One reason for the team’s defensive regression is the pass rush, which ranks in the bottom ten of the league with 22 sacks. They also sit in the bottom half of the league with a hurry rate of 6.6% and pressure rate of 21.6%. Those struggles will be on display on Friday, especially with Eagles’ safety Reed Blankenship questionable to play.
Things haven’t been much better for Philly on offense, where they rank twenty-fourth with an average of 303.6 yards per game. They are averaging just 19 points per game over their last three, and their inability to generate offense cost them a win last week. The unit has also been devastated by injuries, with Saquon Barkley, DeVonta Smith, Landon Dickerson, and Lane Johnson all listed as questionable on the injury report.
The Bears aren’t as good as their record shows, but this is a gritty team. They have won four straight games, all of which were by fewer than seven points. Most of those involved in Chicago are going down early and fighting their way back. Given the Eagles' flaws and injuries, we aren’t willing to give up this many points against the Bears.

We are betting on a big showing from the former Eagles’ running back in prime time. While his usage has varied over the Bears’ season, the back has been producing at a high level, with 649 yards and a 4.6 YPC average. While he’s lost goal-line work to rookie Kyle Monangai, Swift remains one of the best backs in the NFL when working between the 20s.
The Eagles are allowing a lot of yards on the ground this season, allowing 4.3 YPC to opposing backs. While the unit turned some heads by containing Jahmyr Gibbs a couple of weeks ago, the momentum didn't last long, with Javonte Williams rushing 20 times for 87 yards (4.4 YPC) last Sunday.

Jalen Hurts broke a three-game streak of sub-200-yard passing games last week, posting 289 against the Cowboys. While relying on the Eagles' passing game is a risky proposition, we believe the stage is set for the Super Bowl champion to thrive tonight.

The Bears' defense has struggled for most of the season, allowing 26.5 points per game. A big reason for those struggles is the pass defense, which ranks 22nd in yards per game and 27th in touchdowns (22).
It is also important to consider that Saquon Barkley popped up on the injury report with a groin injury. The veteran star has not looked good for most of the 2025 season, and the lingering injury won’t help. That will force the pass game to step up, even if DeVonta Smith is unable to suit up.
