Coming out of their bye week, the Bears are healthy and fresh as they roll into Philadelphia to face the Michael Vick and the thus far disappointing Eagles.
While the Eagles have started off the season in rough fashion, they are coming off consecutive wins and are still loaded with talent. The Bears must step up their game to take down Philadelphia and maintain their advantage in the wild card hunt.
Da Bears head into Monday’s contest with just one player, rookie tackle Gabe Carimi, on the injury report, and Carimi is listed under full participation. The Eagles are a bit more beat up than the Bears, most notable among the list being tight end Brent Celek, who didn’t participate due to a hip injury, and LeSean McCoy who missed practice due to illness. However, the Eagles are in pretty good shape injury-wise.
The Eagles and their deep roster are nothing to sneeze at, and the Bears will have their hands full at Lincoln Financial Field. The Bears will need their best performance from some key players Sunday.
Today we’ll look at those key plays who the Bears need to step up and what the team needs from them in order to get past the “Bad Dream” team in Philly.
