NFL Week 7 takeaways: Eagles facing uphill climb for playoffs

The Bears came up just a little short against the Patriots, the Panthers came all the way back against the Eagles, and the Jaguars are suddenly in disarray.

All that and more in Week 7's biggest takeaways from NFL Nation.

Don't look now, but the Chargers are one of the hottest teams in the NFL, riding a four-game winning streak into the bye week after edging the Titans in London. The break comes at a good time for the Chargers, with Melvin Gordon nursing a hamstring injury and defensive end Joey Bosa potentially playing for the first time against the Seahawks in Week 9 after missing the first seven games with a bruised left foot.
