If you’re a Philadelphia Eagles fan who’s been a proponent of running the ball more, you’re, no doubt gloating after seeing ‘The Birds’ rack up the highest rushing total of the Doug Pederson era (218 yards). That will need to continue in Week 9, and Philly will need to stay patient. This one figures to have some frustrating moments as the Chicago Bears are bringing a very talented defense with them. Philly can’t afford to be one dimensional.
As if the pass rush isn’t enough to worry about, the pass coverage has done their part for Chicago as well.
