Thanksgiving did not disappoint! All three underdogs (Bengals, Cowboys, Packers) came away with victories, and the books were good to me! A new tradition introduced in 2023, today will mark the third Black Friday game in NFL history.

This afternoon's matchup will feature a showdown between the Chicago Bears (8-3, 4-2 away) and the Philadelphia Eagles (8-3, 4-1 home).

The Bears have turned around their franchise under new head coach Ben Johnson after several losing seasons. At 8-3, they are riding a four-game win streak over the Steelers, Vikings, Giants, and Bengals. Better yet, they're 8-2 in their last 10 games!

The reigning Super Bowl champions, the Eagles, are fresh off a 24-21 week 12 loss against division rival Dallas Cowboys; however, they are 7-3 in their last 10 games. One of the most efficient teams on both sides of the ball, Philadelphia has kept its core together, which includes Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, DeVonta Smith, AJ Brown, and more.

Black Friday NFL Matchup: Bears vs Eagles

While both teams have the same record, the books don't view them as the same. Oddsmakers have the Eagles as the second-favorite to win Super Bowl LX (+600), while the Bears have +4500 odds to raise the Lombardi trophy.

While some call the Bears frauds, they have emerged as an offensive powerhouse under second-year quarterback Caleb Williams.  Today is a tall task for the Bears, who are 0-6 against the Eagles since 2013. In fact, the Bears last won against the Eagles in November 2011!

This is a crucial game for both teams, as the Eagles hold a slim lead over the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC East, and the Bears are tied with the Green Bay Packers in the NFC North. With four weeks left, the stakes are high, and every matchup counts!

The matchup opened at Eagles -7, and that hasn't changed much since. The Bears are +280 moneyline underdogs, and the over/under is set for 44.5.

Today is a chance for Caleb Williams and the Bears to prove themselves, while the Eagles will get a chance to iron out the offense.

NFL Black Friday Predictions for Thursday, November 28, Week 13: Bears vs Eagles

• Caleb Williams OVER 19.5 Rush Yards (-158 FanDuel)
• Saquon Barkley OVER 101.5 Rush + Receiving Yards (-105 Fanatics)
• Philadelphia Eagles -7 (-110 FanDuel)

NFL Player Prop Bets Tonight: Caleb Williams

2025-2026 Season Stats

GP: 11 | CMP: 213 | ATT: 360 | Passing Yards: 2,568 | AVG: 7.1 | TD: 16 | INT: 4 | Long: 65 | Rushing Yards: 293 | Carries: 56 | Rushing TD: 3 | Rushing Long: 29

• OVER 19.5 Rush Yards (-158 FanDuel)

My first best bet for Friday, I placed one unit on Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams to record over  19.5 rushing yards.

Now in his second season with the Bears, Williams has progressed under head coach Ben Johnson and is well known for his ability to use his legs.

Ranked No. 7 in sack percentage, Williams cracks just outside the top 10 in scramble % (6.91). Now he faces an Eagles team that has a strong defense—Philadelphia ranks No. 8 in defensive DVOA and No. 10 in pass defense DVOA.

It helps that the Eagles acquired Jaelan Philips at the NFL trade deadline, and Nolan Smith is opposite of Phillips on the other side. Let's face it—this pass rush is going to attack Williams: they rank No. 9 in dropback sack rate, but they've struggled against the run.

Is Caleb Williams a Top 5 NFL Quarterback?

We've seen quarterbacks escape pressure several times against the Eagles, including Jordan Love (28) and Carson Wentz (28). In fact, we've seen Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart rush for 58 yards, and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes for 66 yards.

While the Eagles boast a scary defensive line, they've proven porous as several quarterbacks have found success with their legs.  Soaring over this player prop line in all but four games, Williams has crushed this line in five straight games!

Averaging 37.4 rushing yards over the last five games, are the books sleeping on this line? Just a few weeks ago, we saw Williams torch the Bengals and Giants for 53 and 63 rushing yards!

While this prop is a tad juiced, you can grab Williams for 25+ rushing yards at +104 odds (if you want to get aggressive).

Final Bengals vs Eagles NFL Betting Prediction: Caleb Williams OVER 19.5 Rush Yards (-158 Fanatics)

This season, the birds have given up the ninth-most rushing yards to quarterbacks (22.1), and that fits the bill for this prop. Overall, we already know Williams is decent with his legs, as he's averaging 5.2 yards per carry. Rushing for 163 yards over the last four games, he has 21 carries over that span.

• I'm taking Caleb Williams to record over 19.5 rushing yards against the Eagles on Black Friday.

NFL Player Prop Bets Tonight: Saquon Barkley

2025-2026 Season Stats

GP: 11 | Carries: 187 | Rush Yards: 871 | Rush Avg.: 4.7 | Rush TD: 9 | Rush long: 59 |REC: 13 | Targets: 17 | Receiving Yards: 98 | Rec Avg.: 7.5| Receiving TD: 0 | Receiving long: 19

• OVER 101.5 Rush + Receiving Yards (-105 Fanatics)

My second-best bet for Black Friday, I placed one unit on Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley to record over 101.5 rush and receiving yards. I'm high on this prop considering the value!

I know, Barkley hasn't lived up to expectations, have a magical first season with the Eagles. Whether it's him, the offensive coordinator, or the play-calling, the run game hasn't clicked.

Through 11 games, Barkley has hardly looked like his old self, rushing for 6us 684, and tallying 259 receiving yards. With just four rushing touchdowns on the season, it's safe to say the run game has regressed. In fact, he's eclipsed 100+ rushing yards once, and that was against his former team, the Giants.

Carries aren't a problem; we saw Saquon rush for 22 and 26 times against the Packers and Lions in November. And he even blames himself for last week's loss against the Cowboys.

"I've been kind of nonexistent this year. I've got to figure it out for the team," Barkley told reporters.

That's why I bet on Barkley for rushing and receiving yards. Coming off a season-high 7 receptions and 52 receiving yards, he's proven himself valuable in the backfield. Although unpredictable, Barkley has tallied 125 receiving yards over the last four games.

Can Saquon Barkley Bounce Back?

I know he's coming off a season-low 2.2 yards per carry against the Cowboys, which is pretty much abysmal. I know this is a steep climb at 101.5, which he cleared just once this season.

Hear me out—Saquon has been a killer against the Bears throughout his career, last recording 102 and 162 rushing and receiving yards against Chicago in 2022.

While both squads are vastly different, this is a prime matchup for Barkley to feast. Not only does Chicago allow the fourth-most rushing yards to running backs, but they give up over 44 receiving yards to backs per game.

Let's face it– the offense may be beaming in the Windy City, but the defense is subpar. As a team, the Bears rank No. 25 in defensive DVOA and 26th against the run. This year, Bengals' Chase Brown and Raiders' Ashton Jeanty have well cleared this line with 112 and 155 rush and receiving yards.

Here's what will save Barkley today: The Bears' defense is banged up, and that is NOT an exaggeration. Practically the entire defensive line and linebacker corps are out for today. That includes Dominique Robinson(DE), Ruben Hyppolite II (LB), T.J. Edwards (LB), and Noah Sewell (LB). Not to mention, Jaylon Johnson is questionable to lace up.

Final Bengals vs Eagles NFL Betting Prediction: Saquon Barkley OVER 101.5 Rush + Receiving Yards (-105 Fanatics)

Overall, Nick Sirianni has emphasized the importance of Barkley, and what better matchup to get him going? In the Bears' 31-28 comeback victory last week, they allowed nearly 200 rushing and receiving yards to the Steelers' running backs!

• I'm taking Saquon Barkley to record over 101.5 rush and receiving yards today. Matchups and injuries should give him the advantage on Friday. 

Spread Bet: Bears vs Eagles

• Philadelphia Eagles -7 (-110 FanDuel)

If you know me, you know I'm not a huge fan of large spreads, especially around Thanksgiving.

Sure, the Bears are riding a four-game win streak, but are the opponents that impressive? They are 8-3, and while I'm not calling them frauds, I'm tailing a team on the road. Not against the reigning Super Bowl champs.

This is a perfect week for the Eagles to bounce back from a heartbreaking 24-21 loss against the Cowboys. Am I really going to fade them here, especially at -110 odds?

There have undoubtedly been some questions about the Eagles' offense, including the receivers AJ Brown and DeVonta Smith. While Barkley hasn't quite looked like himself, Brown and Smith combined for over 200 receiving yards last week.

Why The Eagles Çan Cover The Spread

I don't have a magic 8-ball, and it's hard to envision how the offense will look against the Bears. One thing I know is that the Bears' strength doesn't come on the defensive end. Not only do they rank 25th in defensive DVOA, but half of their linebackers and defensive ends are also out today.

The difference between these two teams comes down to health and defense. We are talking about a Bears team that allows the sixth-most total yards per game (362.5) and the sixth-most passing yards per game (224.7)! Not to mention, running backs record nearly 140 rushing yards per game against Chicago.

If I were looking at both teams, they would look fairly competitive on paper, and it may turn out that way! Johnson was the former Lions OC and is familiar with the Eagles. I do believe turnovers are a huge factor for Chicago, and injuries could make the difference in this game.

Final Bengals vs Eagles NFL Betting Prediction: Eagles -7 (-110 FanDuel)

While the Eagles may not look as together as they seem, they've beaten top teams in the Lions, Packers, Buccaneers, Rams, and Chiefs. While the Bears are rolling, they've won the last four games by five points or less! Talk about stress and one-possession games!

• I'm taking the points with the Eagles today. They are 7-4 ATS, and are 3-2 ATS at home this year. We are talking about a team that ranks within the top ten on both sides of the ball.
