Should be an interested game, once again the best thing to happen to the Eagles is Wentz getting hurt. Time after time Nick Foles bails the Eagles out, but they just want to jettison him so they get back to their quarterback of the "future". Grubs gets his first taste if the postseason, will he rise to the occasion or will he fail, we will find out soon enough.

i believe the pre- and post-game discussions by the Eagles fans and Bears fans that frequent this board should be pure gold ....

Bears 12 Eagles 10. Only because Parkey will have missed 2 field goals and an extra point.

Bears are a high volume, low efficiency run offense. If I'm reading the advanced stats right, they dont see stacked boxes very often so teams play the Bears to stop their pass offense. Eagles have a solid run defense but are prone to allowing big runs.

If the Bears can outrun the Eagles by 50+ yards then they should win unless Foles is magic.

Bears dominate from start-to-finish

Those expecting a lot from this will be disappointed.

Bears 27
Eagles 13

Foles is basically the MVP this season so that makes the Eagles QBs 2 for 2 now over the last two seasons and you all know how many Super Bowls we won last year after an MVP QB year. All of them.

Maybe it comes down to which defensive front beats up the QB worse. Foles may be out by the 2nd qtr with those ribs. Or Trubs could be like a deer in the headlights. I don't see either team getting much of a run game going so the play calling may have to be a little creative to get the ball out of the QB's hands quick and hope they can get some yac yardage and first downs off of that.

Bears defense is very good but they haven't faced a QB as good as Foles yet.

That's because there aren't any.

Here's the list of QBs better than Foles in the playoffs:
