Chicago’s special teams unit did a fairly decent job on covering kickoffs and punts, and looks much better than they did at the start of 2015. Eddie Royal not only contributed on offense, but also had a 31-yard punt return, giving the Bears good field position in Week 1. Philly does have a dynamic weapon of their own in Darren Sproles in the punt return game. This phase of the game is pretty much a toss-up.

Advantage: Draw
