Pre-Game:
I think this is going to be a good game and a very high scoring game, especially if the weather is nice in Chicago. Both teams lost last week, the Eagles to the Chargers, 31-23 and the Bears to the 49ers 10-6. Do your research on these two teams before going to any us betting sites. Looks like the current point spread is 3 on most of the top sportsbooks.

Eagles:
Both teams desperately need to win this game, but I think it’s more important for the Eagles. Philadelphia still has a good chance in getting to the playoffs, and I think they are a way better football team than what their record shows at 5-4. They are 5th in the NFL for total points per game at 26.9, and are 9th and 10th in the league in several other of the main key offensive and defensive stats. But, they are not the 9th or 10th best team in the league. Maybe this game will be a turning point for their organization in getting them back on the right track.

Bears:
Chicago really needs to win this game as well to have a chance at a wild card birth, but I think it’s a bigger and more important game for the Eagles. Chicago has been having an extremely up and down year. I thought for sure Chicago would have a much better record than 4-5 going into week 11. Jay Cutler has really been playing poorly, and not what the Chicago fans were hoping for. I believe Cutler threw 5 interceptions in last week’s game alone and is leading all quarterbacks in interceptions. With his poor play and their rushing offense the 3rd worst in the league, it’s going to be a long rest of the season for the Bears if they don’t start turning it around very soon.

Eagles vs Bears Prediction:
Getting right to the point, I predict the Eagles winning this game because they have more to play for. The home field advantage for the Bears is huge for them and will play a big role, but Donovan will step up this game and lead his team to victory. Eagles beat the point spread in a high scoring offensive battle.

Eagles Beat Point Spread and I take the Over
