Top Eagles vs. Bears predictions

Hunt is leaning Under 41.5 combined points for over/under betting at betting apps. The Bears have obvious concerns at quarterback that could limit their offensive upside. While their offense looked dominant in the opener, they scored just a field goal in last week's loss after Williams went down.

Philadelphia, meanwhile, has struggled a bit in its first two games, but has been able to pull out the win late against both Washington (24-22) and Tennessee (24-20). Quarterback Jalen Hurts has led the Eagles, completing 64.5% of his passes for 467 yards and five touchdowns with two interceptions. Hunt expects Philadelphia's defense to be relentless against an undermanned Chicago offense, helping keep this game below the total. See which team to back at SportsLine.
