NFL: Bears 'for real' after statement win over Eagles
"A 24-15 road win over the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles on Friday night at Lincoln Financial Field was the kind of statement performance that pushes a team into the NFC spotlight. Chicago has now taken nine of its last ten games and climbed into the conference's No. 2 seed, overtaking the very opponent they beat."
""We should be confident in ourselves," added safety Jaquan Brisker. "We shouldn't shy away for anything like that. We're on the roll right now, and we could just keep getting better. But that's what we should be thinking [the playoffs]. I mean, we got a whole bunch of dogs in the locker room and things like that, and that's the way we're trending, and we're changing the culture. So yeah, that's how we should think.""
Chicago improved to 9-3 after a 24-15 road victory over the defending champion Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field. The Bears have won nine of their last ten games and rose to the NFC's No. 2 seed. Chicago relied on a dominant ground game, totaling 281 rushing yards, with D'Andre Swift and rookie Kyle Monangai each exceeding 100 rushing yards—the first Bears duo to do so since 1985. Monangai extended a rookie streak by scoring rushing touchdowns in four straight games. Players expressed confidence, emphasized changing team culture, and identified the playoffs as a realistic team objective.
