Read these as a 2-game sample rather than settled form. Rates this early move a long way on one result.
Fifty-nine points and then three is not a form line so much as two different teams. Philadelphia have been steadier, converting 53.1% on third down across both games.
Eagles vs Bears injury report and team news

Philadelphia EaglesChicago BearsWhere Eagles vs Bears is decided
Chicago’s ground game is the swing factor. Two hundred and ninety-one rushing yards against Carolina, then almost nothing against Minnesota, and Philadelphia sit in between at 4.2 a carry conceded.
Philadelphia are the more consistent side without being dominant. Six touchdowns, 53.1% on third down, but two interceptions from Jalen Hurts at Tennessee.
Consequently the Eagles’ pass rush matters. They have three sacks in two games, so Caleb Williams should have time if Chicago can protect him better than they did in Minnesota.
Players to watch
- Jalen Hurts (PHI, QB): 264 yards and two touchdowns at Tennessee, with two interceptions.
- DeVonta Smith (PHI, WR): Ten catches for 117 yards and a score in Week 2.
- D’Andre Swift (CHI, RB): 124 rushing yards and three touchdowns in the opener.
- Caleb Williams (CHI, QB): Held to three points by Minnesota after 59 against Carolina.
