Thanks to the Eagles losing two NFC games before the bye week, they entered the Week 13 slate games one game behind the Detroit Lions in the NFC playoff race, but more like two in any tiebreaker scenario. The Thanksgiving Day slate of games offered the Birds an opportunity to get within a full game of the Lions, but that’ll have to wait after the Bears squandered a late chance to score with the game winding down at Ford Field on Sunday afternoon.
