The Chicago Bears should replce the Philadelphia Eagles in the playoffs
Though the Philadelphia Eagles started the season 10-1, the tail end of their season has been shocking to say the least.
During that 10-1 stretch for the Eagles, they were averaging 28.1 points per game and allowing 22.4 points per game. After that stretch, however, they averaged 20.5 points per game and allowed 27.3 points per game.
The Eagles are a really confusing team right now, as are the Bears, but after the last few games from the Eagles, the Chicago Bears absolutely can make the case that they'd be more entertaining in the postseason.
The Eagles are more entertaining to watch than the Buccaneers, but even still, this current Eagles team isn't as entertaining as the Chicago Bears.
While the Eagles have a top-10 offense, their defense is as close to bottom-of-the-league as it comes.
Eagles defense in 2022:
— Victor Williams (@ThePhillyPod) January 8, 2024
• 70 sacks — 1st
• 97 TFL — 1st
• 124 QB hits — 2nd
• 17 INTs — 3rd
Eagles defense in 2023:
• 43 sacks — 20th
• 73 TFL — 27th
• 106 QB hits — 15th
• 9 INTs — 25th
In their last three games against the Giants, Cardinals, and Giants, the Eagles gave up 25 points, 35 points, and 27 points, respectively.
And, yet, this team is one that the nation will have to sit down and watch? Nope, the Chicago Bears should go in that playoff spot.
