The McNeil and Spiegel Show's Over/Unders for Bears at Eagles on Monday Night Football:
Another big game for the Bears as they travel to take on Philadelphia tonight. If the Bears can find a way to win, they put themselves in a great spot to continue the playoff race. A loss with a rested Detroit coming in next week makes things more difficult. Here are the matchups I'm looking at:
Devin Hester was named NFC Special Teams Player of the Month Thursday after scoring two special teams touchdowns in October.
Bears general manager Jerry Angelo said Williams' future in the NFL is completely up to the performance of the veteran wide receiver.
The Boers and Bernstein Show will venture out of the studio today for a live show at Rivers Casino in Des Plains.
Though a loss to the Bucs would have fluttered the dovecoats, the message sent from London was plain as a pikestaff: keep your wig on, and your chin up. 24-18.
Matt Forte ran for 145 yards and a touchdown and the Chicago Bears held on to beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 24-18 on Sunday in the fifth annual NFL regular-season game at Wembley Stadium.
After missing four consecutive games with a chest injury, wide receiver Earl Bennett had full participation in all three practices this week and is listed as probable for Sunday's game in London.
After leaving Sunday's game early with a chest injury, Bears return man Devin Hester practiced without limitations Thursday and Friday, and appears ready to start in Sunday's game.
Devin Hester didn't practice with Bears on Wednesday as a chest inury that took him out of Sunday's game prematurely continues to bother him.

It's what you need to do against bad teams -- beat them badly. Its not a game that anyone really learned a ton about the Bears in their thrashing of the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday night; however, the Bears now sit 3-3 and are still very much alive in the race for an NFC Wild Card berth.
Lovie Smith does appear to have his own supply of paper towels, though, that he's been able to pull out of the supply closet, to unroll as needed to mop up the pessimism (and who would engage in that, dare I ask?) and keep his team from slipping into the abyss.
Devin Hester set the tone with a 48-yard touchdown catch and scored on a career-best 98-yard kickoff return before leaving with a chest injury, and the Chicago Bears routed the Minnesota Vikings 39-10 on Sunday.
After one quarter, the Bears are out to an early 16-0 lead over the Vikings behind Jay Cutler's 48-yard touchdown pass to Devin Hester.
If Monday was a "must have", then Sunday is a must win. If the Bears were to lose against Minnesota, they would drop to 2-4, with all four losses coming in the NFC. It would also make them 0-3 in the division. When it comes to tie-breaker math, that ain't good. So here's what I'm watching for Sunday night:
Impersonating Jim Mora in writing doesn't do that classic quote any justice, but if you are one of those Bears fans that is still hoping for a second straight NFC North Division title this season — or even a spot in the NFC playoffs in general -- forget it.
Bad drafts, bad signings, desperate trades and hamstrung, stubborn coaches have the Bears staring at a dark road.
With the Packers moving to 5-0, it's imperative that the Bears get a win tonight in Detroit. A loss would leave two undefeated teams at the top of the division. Plus, both of those teams at this point would have tie-breakers against the Bears. Even if you think that winning the division is a fantasy, there's still the issue of the wildcard. If the Bears want to be in that conversation, a win is essential. Here's what I'm watching in this pivotal matchup:
