An SB Nation preview says Jordan Davis will be central to stopping Swift and Monangai when Chicago hosts the Eagles Monday night. The Bears lead the NFL with 212.5 rushing yards per game entering Week 3; Philadelphia ranks 24th, allowing 127 rushing yards per game.
In their Philadelphia meeting last November, Chicago rushed for 281 yards, with Swift and Monangai each scoring a touchdown; the preview calls that performance a blueprint for Monday. The Bears no longer have Drew Dalman, and the writer says Garrett Bradbury has not yet proved a perfect replacement, while Joe Thuney and Jackson could help open lanes inside.
The preview said Wednesday that the Bears’ top two quarterbacks, Caleb Williams and Tyson Bagent, could potentially be unavailable Monday; it did not confirm their status. It says Davis played about 66% of snaps in most games last season, including against Chicago, and is around 50% so far this season. The writer expects the Bears to test his conditioning early with power runs.
