MNF takes us to Soldier Field (8:15 p.m. ET, ESPN), where I’m backing the visitors to take advantage of the home team’s quarterback situation in my Eagles vs. Bears prediction. 

The Eagles, 6-4 ATS in their previous 10 road games, are the 3.5-point betting favorite. Let’s get into what I expect to occur. This analysis is part of our NFL Week 3 predictions.

Eagles -3.5 (-105 via FanDuel)

Saquon Barkley is playing, and Williams isn’t. While Tyson Bagent showed some promise in his eight appearances since 2024, the Bears backup QB has started only four games and scored more than 17 points once.

All of those starts came in his 2023 rookie season. If he doesn’t start, which he should after clearing concussion protocol, 38-year-old Case Keenum will. His previous start was also in 2023, and the journeyman has a 30-36 record with nine teams since joining the league in 2013. 

While the Eagles' 17th-ranked defensive DVOA doesn’t inspire much confidence, Vic Fangio’s unit has the sixth-highest hurry percentage (14.5%) despite blitzing at the eighth-lowest rate.  

📡 SBR EDGE - Other potential Eagles' advantage

Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni are 6-0 when Shawn Hochuli refs. He will call MNF. The Eagles have the least penalized defense through two weeks.

Eagles ground game vs. Bears run defense

The Bears allow 4.9 yards per rush attempt, the seventh-most. It’s an area the Eagles must expose. While the Eagles average only 3.9 yards per attempt, tied for 16th, I fancy them to be more efficient and productive against a team that has shown vulnerabilities in the trenches. 

Score prediction: Eagles 21, Bears 17
