% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The story coming in to Friday was that this was a game the Philadelphia Eagles couldn’t afford to lose.

More News: Ben Johnson explains how Bears crushed Eagles’ spirit

The Chicago Bears won it.

In defeating the Eagles 24-15 on the road, Chicago improved to 9-3 and has the second best record in the NFC before Week 14.

The Green Bay Packers will be waiting for the Bears at Lambeau Field on Dec. 7, but worries about the NFC North can wait for a few days after beating the defending Super Bowl champs.

The Bears look like a playoff contender after winning their fifth-straight game, and they won on Friday by playing a physical style of ball not seen since the team won a Super Bowl in 1985.

The Chicago Bears pulled off a feat not seen in 40 years

More News: Bears’ Ben Johnson has NFL on ‘alert’: Report

Per ESPN’s Courtney Cronin, the Bears had multiple 100-yard rushers on Friday for the first time since Chicago beat the Detroit Lions 24-3 in 1985.

“WOW. From ESPN Research This is the first time the Bears have had multiple 100-yard rushers in the same game since Nov. 10, 1985 — Walter Payton (107) and Matt Suhey (102) vs Lions (CHI won, 24-3),” Cronin posted on X.

The Bears rushed for 281 yards and two touchdowns on 47 carries. Seventh-round rookie Kyle Monangai led the Bears with 130 yards and one touchdown on 22 carries. Veteran running back D’Andre Swift added 125 yards and one touchdown on 18 carries.

Are the Bears built for the postseason?

During his postgame news conference, Johnson credited the offensive line and running backs for crushing the Eagles.

“It’s about that running game,” Johnson said. “I don’t think we person so about that running game. I don’t think we win that game if our if we’re not able to run the ball like we were. Both the backs over 100 yards was just outstanding. You could feel decisiveness. You could feel them hitting it downhill.”

Chicago is winning with defense and the running game, and that’s a formula built for postseason success.
