The Philadelphia Eagles (8-4) have dropped two straight after falling 24-15 to the Chicago Bears in Week 13. They’ll head west to face the Los Angeles Chargers (8-4) at SoFi Stadium on Monday Night Football.
Philadelphia QB Jalen Hurts did what he could to keep the game close against Chicago, throwing 2 TDs for the first time since October 26. But with minimal help from the run game and the defense, Philadelphia couldn’t keep pace.
Hurts will aim to get the offense back on track against a banged-up Chargers squad in Week 14.
