Two tough guy cities will square off in NFL Week 7 when the Philadelphia Eagles vs Chicago Bears kicks of in Philly but what team is for real and what team is the fake? Lately the Eagles have been looking decent if not spectacular after last week’s 16-9 win in New York against the Jets as -4 favs. The Bears disappointing season continued last week in a 31-34 loss at home against Minnesota as -4.5 favs. BetUS.com has has the Philadelphia Eagles as -5.5 favorites at home.
Da Bears have looked only like a shell of the team that went to the Superbowl last year and injuries to key players hasn’t helped. The Philadelphia Eagles have been primarily a passing team this year but they should be well served on offense through both the air and ground against a Chicago D that is yielding 24.8 PPG. This week the versatile and dangerous Philly RB Brian Westbrook returns to give the Eagles their most potent weapon back on offense.
Chicago QB Brian Griese needs time to throw to be effective and he might not be given that liberty against an Eagles defense that has sacked the quarterback 19 times. Bears RB Cedric Benson has performed about as poorly as any back in the NFL gaining only 3.1 yards per carry while fumbling 3 times. The Bears have a talented core of wideouts to match up with the Eagles secondary but if the O-line can’t protect Griese it those receivers might not ever see the ball. BetUS.com has the over\under in this game at 42 points.
Bettors need to keep track on game day of the status of Chicago All-Pro DT Tommie Harris who could be sidelined with a hamstring injury. On the Philadelphia side of the ball the status of playmaking CB Lito Sheppard should be monitored as he might be out with a knee injury.
Can the Eagles break their curse of playing the Bears where they have won only 8 of 33 games in the series? Can the Bears regain their swagger with a win on the road with their backs against the wall?
