Week 3: Eagles Visit Bears on Monday Night With Caleb Williams Likely Out
The Philadelphia Eagles visit the Chicago Bears on Monday night, September 28. Philadelphia is 2-0 after a 24-20 win at Tennessee in 95-degree heat in which Jalen Hurts threw two touchdowns and two interceptions; Dallas Goedert has an MCL sprain and is expected to miss weeks, Landon Dickerson is on injured reserve, Jalen Carter will play with a cast on his right wrist, and Zach Ertz was signed to the practice squad. Chicago is 1-1 after a 9-3 home loss to Minnesota; Caleb Williams is week-to-week with a right hamstring injury and likely to miss time, which would put Tyson Bagent in his first start of the season.
Bagent or Williams
Ben Johnson said Monday that Williams will likely miss time; the Bears scored 59 in Week 1 and 3 in Week 2 with him.
Philadelphia's injuries
Goedert, Dickerson and a casted Carter; the Eagles have won by 2 and 4 despite being 2-0.
Chicago's defense showed up
Three points allowed to Minnesota and two takeaways in a game the Bears outgained the Vikings.
AI Prediction
Eagles
Bears The quarterback gap with Williams out
Hurts against Bagent on a Monday night; the Eagles' defense held Washington and Tennessee to 42 combined.
Chicago's offense without its quarterback
Three points against Minnesota with Williams for most of the game; the projection assumes Bagent starts.
Philadelphia has not been dominant
Two wins by a combined 6 points and a thinning tight end room keep this at 11 rather than more.
A High-confidence road lean that depends on Williams sitting. If he is cleared to start, the pregame update would move this toward Medium.
