The (1-1) Chicago Bears host the (2-0) Philadelphia Eagles in prime time, and this is a big early-season matchup. Both teams won their respective divisions in 2025, and they played each other in the Black Friday game. Chicago came out on top that night, and they did so in a physical fashion while rushing for 281 yards. D’Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai each went over a hundred yards with a combined 40 carries for 255 yards and a touchdown each. That performance got them the postgame spotlight with the Amazon
crew.
