This is a 10* TOTAL ART OF WAR on the UNDER between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Chicago Bears.
Setting the scene: On a cold blustery night in Chicago in early September, we think these offensively challenged clubs will play to a classic lower-scoring "chess match."
The Eagles: Philadelphia and rookie QB Carson Wentz came away with a 29-10 win over the Browns in Week 1. The defense was excellent, holding Cleveland to 168 yards passing and 120 yards on the ground. Dominating the Browns' suspect secondary is one thing, doing the same thing on the road at Soldier Field is quite another. Bears' head coach John Fox is going to throw the kitchen sink at Wentz today.
The Bears: Chicago looked "ok" in its season opening loss to the talented Houston Texans on Sunday. QB Jay Cutler wasn't particularly impressive though, finishing 16 of 29 for 216 yards, a TD and an INT. Note that Cutler was sacked five times and took 13 hits overall. Look for the home side to once again lean heavily on RB Jeremy Langford, who finished with 57 yards on 17 carries and a TD. Chicago's defense catches a break obviously in facing the rookie Wentz.
The bottom line: Note that Philadelphia has interestingly seen the total dip below the posted number in five of its last eight games played in the month of September, while Chicago has seen the total go UNDER the number in ten of its last 16 at home and in four of its last six when playing the role of favorite. Play the UNDER.
