The Philadelphia Eagles face the Chicago Bears on Monday night, aiming to improve their run defense after a disappointing loss to Chicago last year. In their previous matchup, the Bears rushed for 281 yards against the Eagles, marking a critical area of concern. Currently, the Bears lead the NFL in several rushing categories, while the Eagles rank low in run defense statistics. Defensive player Jordan Davis emphasized the need for discipline to avoid another repeat performance.
