It’s been a tough eight weeks for the Philadelphia Eagles. On the surface, one could call the opening half of the season a disappointment. It started by going 17-0 down to the Washington Redskins and signs to be genuinely optimistic were sporadic from that moment on. But when you dig a little deeper, being at 4-4 isn’t the worst thing in the world for a team nearing full-health and sensing a Bye-week. But before they get there, the Chicago Bears will look to get revenge for January’s double-doink playoff loss.
You don’t even have to mention the inconsistencies and problems on the field to realize how tough this season has been so far.
