Bears defeat Eagles 27-7 on Monday Night Football with veteran quarterback Case Keenum
Chicago overcame Philadelphia 27-7, highlighted by third-string quarterback Case Keenum's two passing touchdowns and a rushing score, while the Eagles struggled offensively.
Chicago held a 27-7 lead over Philadelphia in a Monday Night Football matchup that concluded Week 3 of the 2026 NFL season. Veteran quarterback Case Keenum, filling in for injured starters, completed 24 of 34 passes for 247 yards, threw two touchdowns and added a one-yard rushing score in the fourth quarter. Kalif Raymond contributed a 41-yard touchdown reception, and Luther Burden added a receiving touchdown.
The Bears built a 20-7 advantage early in the fourth quarter after a short rushing touchdown by Keenum. Defensive linebacker T.J. Edwards intercepted a fourth-down pass from Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, giving Chicago possession late in the third quarter. The Eagles, who turned the ball over twice in the second half, managed only a single touchdown—a one-yard “Tush Push” run by Hurts before halftime.
Chicago’s kicker Cairo Santos was perfect on his attempts, converting two field goals and an extra point. The Bears’ left tackle Braxton Jones was listed as questionable after a knee injury, with backup Theo Benedet stepping in.
"I have no idea what Jalen Hurts was doing there. Or Nick Sirianni, for that matter," wrote a commentator, noting the Eagles’ fourth-down interception.
Philadelphia’s starting quarterback Jalen Hurts left the game temporarily for a concussion evaluation before returning, and backup Andy Dalton entered in the second quarter, throwing an interception that set up the Bears’ first score.
The victory gave Chicago a 2-1 record, while the Eagles remained unbeaten at 2-0 in the NFC East.
