Wildcard Game Thread: Eagles @ Bears

[sb1]

Looking forward to the Bears ending the Eagles one year dynasty. Lane Johnson won’t be having much fun today.

Bears 27
Eagles 17

I like the Eagles in this one. Foles seems to galvanize the rest of the offense (WRs/RBs). He doesn’t just go to his first read (Ertz), like Wentz. They are kinda hot right now. While the Eagles’ weakness is their secondary, I’m not sure Trubisky can exploit that; especially in his very first playoff game. PHI has been battled tested (we know first hand). Da Bears D will be the great equalizer though. We’ll see.

Im still on the fence how I’m ging to bet this one, I do think the bears win though, but will they cover

Tempted to go with Philadelphia on the experience factor, but I think Chicago is playing too well right now. The way they went into Minnesota and dominated that team who had everything to play for was quite impressive. Going with da bearSs

I think it ends here for Philly but whatever happens I hope they don’t decide to trade Foles to the Dolphins.

Trubisky can't win a game on his own. Bears D will have to create turnovers and give him a short field. Game will be close but Foles will win it. I don't know why thus line opened so high. Take the Eagles and the points.

I like the Bears today....but not by much.

 

[italian pat patriot]

here i pick Da Bears only due to the fact that game is playied in Chicago...

I think they're going to have to release him before they can trade him; his $20M salary for 2019 becomes fully guaranteed a few days into the league year.

Go Bears! FECK the Philthy Iggles; I despise them so much that I would rather have the Bears be in a less favorable draft position for us than see Melonhead Dougie win another game.

It’d never happen... but Foles as a Pat would be cool.

Foles turns 30 next Sunday, so even if he plays fabulously well, the Pats might only have him around for another dozen years or so.

I think the Eagles are gonna whoop the Bears today.

I think foles has earned the right to start next season somewhere; I can’t see us offering a high pick just to have him sit behind brady next year. My guess would be Jacksonville

 

[fxmallon]

Doesn't Foles have a problem with injured ribs... if so, the Chicago defense will be a bigger key to this game than anticipated. I love Foles passing, having seen more of it this year than last... it's the way he makes it easy on his receivers with those perfectly placed, in stride, passes... and they're a beauty to behold. I pick Chicago here, although they ain't that easy a team to pick despite their incredible defense.

I laid some money on: Eagles +6.5 and Over of 41 (teased down the over by .5).

I am thinking 24-20 Bears type of game....but Foles really pulls things outta his arse...

I have a parlay which only needs bears -5.5 so there was no need to bet them straight. Bought eagles to 7.5 and hedged
