Bears Ground Eagles 24-15 After Rare Tush-Push Fumble

The result crystallizes mounting concern over the Eagles’ stagnant offense under first-year play-caller Kevin Patullo.

Overview

  • Chicago improved to 9-3 with a head-to-head tiebreaker over 8-4 Philadelphia after its fifth straight win.
  • D’Andre Swift (125 yards, one touchdown) and rookie Kyle Monangai (130 yards, one touchdown) powered a 281-yard rushing day that controlled tempo and possession.
  • Jalen Hurts had an interception and then fumbled on a third-and-1 sneak at the Bears’ 12, with Nahshon Wright stripping and recovering the ball to set up a 92-yard touchdown drive.
  • Jake Elliott missed a potential tying extra point in the third quarter, and home fans booed and began leaving early as frustrations grew.
  • Saquon Barkley was held to 56 rushing yards as Philadelphia finished 4-for-12 on third down with 317 total yards, turning next to a Dec. 8 road game against the Chargers.
