Bears vs. Eagles Prediction & Odds Today: NFL Black Friday Best Bets
The Chicago Bears visit the Philadelphia Eagles on Black Friday, and my Bears vs. Eagles prediction anticipates Chicago making a game of it despite being a 7-point underdog.
Both squads hold 8-3 records, but the Eagles are the heavy home favorite ahead of kickoff from Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia at 3 p.m. ET (Prime Video). My NFL Week 13 predictions believe Eagles running back Saquon Barkley will excel during the showdown this afternoon.

🏈 Bears vs. Eagles preview & score prediction: Black Friday
The Bears are actually good. However, their easy schedule should prevent anyone from saying they're elite. They've won eight of the previous nine and four straight. But only one of those victories, against the 6-5 Pittsburgh Steelers, came against a team that is currently above .500.
That said, the Bears have an uncanny knack for playing in tight contests, with just three of those nine games decided by more than five points. Six of Chicago's previous eight games were decided by an average of 2.67 points.
The Eagles are in a similar boat, consistently playing up or down to their opponents' level. Only one of the Eagles' eight victories has come by more than seven points, against the two-win New York Giants at home in Week 8.
Take that victory out of the equation, and the Eagles' winning margin averages 5.14 points.
With that 18-point triumph, the Eagles' average winning margin is still just 6.75 points. Two of their three losses came by four points or fewer. At +1.5 per game, Chicago has the best turnover margin in the NFL. Even if they don't win the turnover battle, I'm not confident Philly can break it open, and our Dustin Saracini's Bears vs. Eagles player props anticipates a grind-it-out game.
In addition, wind gusts of up to 35 mph could wreak havoc on the field goal kickers, making it even more challenging to gain separation. If the Bears lose by six points or fewer, you'll earn $9.26 on a $10 bet at DraftKings.
Score prediction: Eagles 23, Bears 17

🆚 Key matchup to watch on Black Friday
Saquon Barkley vs. Bears' defense
Barkley has endured the most precipitous drop in level and production since last season.
However, he has hit the Over on this total in consecutive home games and is facing a Bears team with the sixth-worst defensive rush DVOA. It allows the third-most rushing yards per attempt (5.2) and the fifth-most rushing yards per game (138.1).
I'd be surprised if the Eagles don't try to exploit that poor run-stop unit, especially in what should be blustery conditions. Even if the wind is a non-factor, Philly will attempt to dictate time of possession with a heavy dose of Saquon.
FanDuel offers the lowest total (76.5 yards), and its odds are almost the same as the other best sports betting sites in providing higher yardage totals. The -114 odds imply a 53.27% probability, and a winning $10 bet will profit $8.77.

Best prop bet: Over 76.5 rushing yards (-114 via FanDuel)
