The Philadelphia Eagles and Chicago Bears will conclude Week 3 of the NFL slate Monday night at 8:15 p.m. EST on ESPN, with the undefeated Eagles facing a Bears team trying to stay above .500.
The Eagles enter at 2-0, while Chicago sits at 1-1. However, quarterback availability differs significantly between the teams. Multiple outlets note that Bears starting QB Caleb Williams is out, with Chicago turning to Case Keenum as QB3 per the reporting. The Eagles, meanwhile, are expected to have their full complement of players available.
History adds context to the matchup. Per multiple accounts, the Bears defeated the Eagles in their last meeting, which took place on Black Friday at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. The Bears notably dominated that contest by "bullying" the Eagles, per Windy City Gridiron. This time, the teams meet at Soldier Field in Chicago. Several outlets highlight that Chicago's run game will be central to the contest—the Eagles' defense struggled against it in the previous matchup. One highlight already posted from the game shows Luther Burden scoring a touchdown on the Bears' opening drive.
