Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Nick Foles appears to be in line to make another start for Philly this coming Sunday against the Chicago Bears.

Foles will have his hands full against a tough Bears defense that is arguably the best in the league alongside the Baltimore Ravens. Foles has been fantastic since taking over for Carson Wentz, leading the Eagles to two victories over the Los Angeles Rams and Houston Texans.

Foles passed for 471 yards and four passing touchdowns against a tough Texans defense in Week 16. The veteran quarterback is showing glimpses of the run he took the Eagles on last season that ultimately lead to a Super Bowl victory. Foles is giving Philly fans a reason to believe a repeat of last season's success is a possibility despite all of the adversity the team has overcome this season.

The Eagles will need a big game out of Foles if they want to advance to the next round of playoffs considering the Bears are heavily favored on their home turf. The Bears have been a nightmare for opposing offenses and force a lot of turnovers as well as create a lot of pressure on the quarterback.

A silver lining for the Eagles is perhaps their experience over the Bears in the playoffs. The Bears young quarterback Mitchell Trubisky has never seen the playoffs in addition to many members of the Bears young team. It could be a defensive showdown as both teams possess strong defensive units. Foles will need some extra help on Sunday in Chicago and ride the momentum in from previous weeks.
