After reading this whole thread, my opinion of Chicagoan fans has NOT changed. Whenever one of their sports' teams even gets a sniff at a championship, they sit or stand around belching and farting and bloviating about what their team is going to do to the other team on Sunday.
What I hear is my schwanz is bigger than your schwanz or my Dad can lick your Dad...da Bears, da Bears, da Bears...
In ancient Greek theater when a character suffered from this mindset, it was written that he suffered from 'hubris'.
To the Greeks, hubris referred to extreme pride, especially pride and ambition so great that they offend the gods and lead to one's downfall. Hubris was a character flaw often seen in the heroes of classical Greek tragedy, including Oedipus and Achilles. The familiar old saying "Pride goeth before a fall" is basically talking about hubris.

Wow, what a shitshow Achilles - how come this always happens in your threads?
I grew up in Packerland and carried it with me forever. I'd rather go 2-14 and have the 2 be the Bears than 14-2 and have the 2 be the Bears.
That said, this Bears secondary is absolutely lights out. Philly is going to have to figure out a way to run it at least a little, because Nicky can't sling it all game against this secondary - they'll eat him up alive. Combined with Mack & Co. coming on the rush, this game could get very ugly. Nagy is smart and will have a very conservative offense - the Bears D may very well outscore Philly.

I´m on Phily and will be even more so, should Eddie Jackson be out.
1. Offensively, no team has a better set of targets than Phily. Jeffery, Agholor and Tate vs the Bears´ achilles heel which is defending WR. You have some dynamic RBs with great hands. And let´s add a Pro Bowl TE to that equation. Hopefully Eddie Jackson is out.
2. The Eagles´ defensive struggles also revolve around WRs. However Chicago´s receiving corpse is average at best. So they won´t be able to exploit that match up as much as almost all elite WRs that Philadelphia has faced.
3. Pederson vs Nagy. Not only the experience granted by last year. But Nagy is stubborn. This is a game for Tarik Cohen and hopefully we get an overdose of Howard.
4. Trubisky vs Foles. Trubisky had 4 games with multiple interceptions. Seattle, New England, Minnesota and LA Rams. ALL AT HOME. Big games at home, he has shown a tendency to flop. Foles on the contrary mans up with pressure as shown the last 2 seasons. 2% of Foles´ passes this season have been intercepted vs 4% of Trubisky´s
5. Motivation. I know it is up for both. But Philly was dead three weeks ago, and they resurrected. Again at the main event through the doggy door... underdog set up just as last year. Bring it!
6. Experience. Turnovers, penalties.
And the big key of the game is Eddie Jackson. With the Bears´ shitty cornerbacks and without their best weapon to defend Ertz, the Eagles would be a no-brainer. I don´t care how many Khalil Macks you have, Foles would be able to find the right match up and get rid of the ball quickly.

Nick Foles is a good friend of the son of the creator of the universe...so he has that going for him.

Keep slinging the insults and making friends Achillies! You do you the best of anyone!
We killed it in the markets today!

And I will give you the following stats just to prove my point and enlighten you.
Packers: Cobb 142, Adams 88, Allison 69.
Baldwinless Seahawks: Locket 60 yds.
Cardinals: Christian Kirk 90 yds.
Bucs: Desean Jackson 112, Mike Evans 59
Miami: Albert Wilson 155, Amendola 59
Patriots: Josh Gordon 100, Chris Hogan 63
Detroit: Golladay: 78, Marvin Jones 55
Vikings: Diggs 126, Thielen 66
Detroit: Golladay: 90
Green Bay: Adams: 120
49ers: Kittle 73, Borune 73. (Shows the importance of Eddie Jackson to cover the TE).
Yeah, they did great their last week vs the Vikings, and yes they did quite well agains OBJ (with Eli Manning though). But that does not compensate their shitty performances.
You may have a thousand good reasons to pick the Bears but an Elite group of Cornerbacks is not one of them.

And Khalil Mack is an animal. But you could have 3 oKMs and if the QB gets rid of the ball in less than 3 seconds it wont matter. Also, respect Jason Peters

Hey gutinstincts….get used to it. That's the way Achillies rolls. I'm just here to watch him spew insults....a ton of them come my way but you have to be willing to take your share.....he doesn't discriminate.
Good luck to you!
Hey Achillies, my fake mountaintop grew by 3% today so I'm feeling good!
