The Chicago Bears tried to put up a fight, but the Philadelphia Eagles had too much in the tank as they fought back and triumphed in a narrow 22-14 win. It was a close contest that saw the Khalil Mack-led defense fail to stop the Eagles as they scored two touchdowns and got enough yards to get 10 points through kicking.
However, Mack is far from happy with how the game went down. In fact, the outside linebacker event went so far to say that Jason Kelce was pulling off dirty tricks to get favorable calls.
Adam Hoge reported what the star linebacker thought of the game.
Khalil Mack on the offsides penalties: "Man, you see the bullshit Kelce was kind of doing with the ball. Just moving it a little bit. But, even then, can’t make excuses. That’s not the type of group we have.”

Mack is referring to the fact that the Eagles got two first downs thanks to Kelce's suspect placement of the football. The Bears were caught offsides plenty of times that he felt justified to unleash a curse word in Kelce's direction.
However, he cannot deny that the Eagles offense simply managed to outplay them in every aspect of the game. Carson Wentz had a better overall performance than Mitch Trubisky, finishing with 239 yards, one passing touchdown, and no interceptions. The rushing defense was also exposed as Jordan Howard managed to complete 82 rushing yards in 19 attempts. Miles Sanders had a decent outing in his return from injury with his 42 yards.
The Bears' season is barely hanging by a thread, and one more loss can put them out of playoff contention. The defense will continue to grind out, but Trubisky and the rest of the offensive unit must step up to their standards if they're to have any hope of winning.
