Bear Goggles On: I’m in a pool where I have to pick a team to lose every week; it’s sort of like the opposite of a Survival pool.  I’m a homer and can’t ever bring myself to pick the Bears, but this is the week that I select the Bears to lose.  The Bears just don’t have the horses to run with the Eagles.

I expect Alshon Jeffery to have a big “revenge” game against his old team while Carson Wentz piles up the yardage.  The Bears offense likes to run the ball, but the Eagles defense is really good against the run, so it doesn’t bode well for Chicago.  I’m expecting this one to be over by halftime with the Bears getting some point in garbage time.  I say the Eagles take this one by a score of 34-19.
