Bears @ Eagles Preview

The Chicago Bears will be headed to Philadelphia in a match up of two teams who were believed to be superbowl contenders. But, the Bears at 2-4 and the Eagles at 2-3 are just looking to get back on the winning track. These two teams can not afford to lose another game and fall farther form their hopes of making the playoffs.
The bears will be starting Brian Griese for the third straight game, after benching Rex Grossman. They are going to need a big performance from him since the eagles run defense is 9th in the league, only allowing 90yds per game. But, Griese may struggle since Pro Bowl Corner Lito Sheppard will be returning after suffering an injury from the first game of the season. And already the Eagles are 9th in the league in pass defnes allwoing only 201 yds per game with 5 ints.
This game is huge for the Eagles confidence. If the Eagles can pull this one off and get back to .500, plus win 2 games in a row for the first time this season. Westbrook, the who gets this offense rolling will need to have another great performance. If the Eagles can start the game with a few big runs, it will open up the passing game for the rest of the year. The bears defense has been struggling against the pass lately, therefore Mcnabb could be in stored for a huge game.
I believe this one will be a close game for a good portion of the game, Eagles offense will be able to move the ball, and field position will be huge since bears have all pro kick returner Devin Hester. The Eagles will prevail late in this one with a few huge turnovers winning 24- 13, improving to .500 and on their way back to the top of the NFC East
