The Eagles didn’t have many opportunities to face the run in Week 1 when they played the Cleveland Browns. Cleveland handed the ball to their running backs only 15 times. Browns running back Isaiah Crowell had 12 of those rushing attempts, but he averaged 5.2 yards per carry. Bears running back Jeremy Langford was limited with his carries against the Texans as well, but should see an increased workload, along with Ka’Deem Cary and rookie Jordan Howard.

Advantage: Bears
