Here it comes 2 of the hottest teams at the end of the season for the NFC
Foles makes that Eagles team just play better, he's not better then Wentz, not by a long shot, but his willingness to take deep shots to Jeffery really seemto open up their O.
Speaking of that, Jeffery is coming home to Chicago, a team he walked away from, and apparently rightfully so b/c he has a SB ring b/c of it. But this is not the same team as he left. THis years Mitchell is better then any qb Jeffery worked with here, and the def isn't going to make those 50-50 balls easy. Jackson Prince Fuller all can compete for those.
Speaking of facing prior teams, here is Burton, a big part of this O that was a big part of that Philly SB win, he's not a backup anymore.
Bears def should be an advantage, the question will be if the Bears O can hold up there end of the bargain again. They'll need to b/c as good as the def is, you aren't likely to hold them to sub 20 pts; and unlike LA and NO's or even Minny could have been, Philly won't be effected by the cold outdoor weather.
Both coaches are hyper aggressive and will use gadget plays to keep the def off balance, biggest difference in the 2 teams is experience, specifically playoff experience. Foles is also going to be sore, if healthy at all, and going against this def he might not be healthy at all; it wouldn't be to surprising if they have to go w/a more Wentz like gameplan and use quicker shorter passes, but that isn't Foles strength.
Me, I think the Bears win, 25-22
