Bears Lead Eagles, 6-3, At Halftime
CHICAGO (CBS)--At halftime, the Chicago Bears are leading the Philadelphia Eagles, who trail 3-6.
The Bears are on a quest to win a playoff game for the first time in eight years.
Cody Parkey 29yd FG gives the #Bears a 6-3 halftime lead. Who would've thunk Parkey & the punter O'Donnell would be the offensive MVP's thus far? Mitch should have 3 picks. Bird brain penalties & butterfingers from the #Eagles saving them.

Incomplete pass or a fumble?

#Bears fans booing Alshon Jeffery ever time he touches the ball. But it's been after a couple of 1st down catches.
