Eagles Chase Perfect Start

The Philadelphia Eagles are heading to Soldier Field for a major clash in Week 3 of the 2026 NFL season. Led by quarterback Jalen Hurts, the Eagles have started the season in perfect form with two wins from their opening two games.

History shows that a strong start is a great sign for the Philadelphia team. In each of the last three seasons where they managed to start with a 2-0 record, they went on to secure a place in the playoffs. Those successful campaigns came in 2022, 2023, and 2025. They will want to keep that streak going as they travel to Chicago.

Bears Battle Injury Problems

On the other side of the field, the Chicago Bears are facing a tough test at home. The team is currently dealing with multiple injuries to key players as they prepare for this difficult matchup.

The Bears are desperate to get back into the win column after a difficult start to their campaign. Playing in front of their home fans at Soldier Field could give them the lift they need. Overcoming a strong Philadelphia team will require a massive performance from their squad, especially with so many players currently struggling with fitness issues.

Game Time and Broadcast Schedule

The game is scheduled to take place on Monday night, wrapping up the third week of action in the NFL. The pre-game coverage begins at 6 p.m. Eastern Time with the countdown show. The main game between the Eagles and the Bears will kick off at 8:15 p.m. Eastern Time.

Fans can follow the action through various streaming hubs, mobile applications, and television networks. This game is the third Monday night fixture of the 2026 season and promises to be an intense battle as both teams fight for different goals early in the year.
