The Chicago Bears and Philadelphia Eagles share a lot of similarities as they head into their Week 16 matchup. Both are 8-6 and cling to slim leads in their divisions; the Bears over the 7-6-1 Packers and the Eagles over the 7-7 Cowboys. Both Chicago and Philadelphia have benefited from meltdowns by division opponents in Week 15; the Lions blew a late lead against the Ravens while Dallas imploded in the Romoception debacle. Finally, both teams in this matchup have critical games against division foes to close the season; the Bears against the Packers and the Eagles against the Cowboys.
