"Philadelphia surrendered a 21-point lead last week as the Eagles were stunned by their NFC East rivals the Dallas Cowboys in a 24-21 defeat, a loss that knocked the defending Super Bowl champions off top spot in the NFC. The Eagles may be happier for the shorter turnaround to this game as they seek to get the bad taste out of their mouths, and they will be expected to resume normal service despite the Bears' strong season."
"Six of the Bears' eight wins under first-year head coach Ben Johnson have been by one score, and last Sunday's 31-28 victory over Pittsburgh Steelers (6-5) is their only one over a team that currently has a winning record. The matchup with the Eagles marks the start of a gauntlet for the Bears over the final six weeks of the season. All but one of their games across that span come against teams who currently have a winning record."
""He's like the godfather in a lot of ways. He's kind of taken the league over in terms of that scheme. It's gone to another number of teams," Johnson"
Philadelphia Eagles (8-3) aim to recover on Black Friday after surrendering a 21-point lead in a 24-21 loss to the Dallas Cowboys that dropped them from the top of the NFC. Chicago Bears (8-3) have secured six one-score victories under first-year head coach Ben Johnson, with their only win over a currently winning team coming last week. The Bears begin a difficult six-game stretch facing mostly winning opponents, including the Packers twice, the 49ers and the Lions. A key matchup will pit Ben Johnson's offense against Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio's scheme.
