The Chicago Bears will battle the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football, where Chicago is looking to bounce back following the loss of quarterback Caleb Williams and a rough showing in Week 2.
The Bears are coming off a brutal 9-3 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, where Chicago's offensive production dropped from 59 points in Week 1 to a single field goal in Week 2. Ben Johnson was out-coached by Brian Flores and the players continued to commit self-inflicted mistakes that cost them in a close game. To make matters worse, quarterback Caleb Williams suffered a hamstring injury that's expected to keep him out for a little bit. But the defense did have a nice bounce-back outing after an abysmal showing in the season opener.
Here’s how the Bears
and Eagles stack up statistically ahead of Monday night's matchup.
