(NFL) Philadelphia vs. Chicago,
Point Spread: 6.50 | -102.00 Philadelphia (Away)
Result: Win
Nick Foles has his Eagles back in the playoffs in a very similar situation as last season. This is an Eagles team that won the Super Bowl last year against a team with a rookie quarterback and rookie head coach.
This particular matchup against the Bears is an intriguing one because of how the Bears defense is. Second year QB Mitch Trubisky gets his first taste of the playoffs and he hasn't been the same since his injury.
The Eagles play within the front seven, are solid and the Bears are 0-8 against the NFC East the past few years.



Chicago also has a shaky kicker in Cody Parkey, and a defense that may be great but has a tendency to get too conservative late in games, allowing opponents to close the gap, it's hard to pass up on nearly a touchdown here with Philly. Look for a very tight game that'll come down to a field goal.
