What a night on the Chicago lakefront. After a week of uncertainty, injury issues, and having to face an undefeated NFC foe, the Chicago Bears put on a masterclass to soundly defeat the Philadelphia Eagles 27-7 behind the arm of 38-year-old quarterback Case Keenum.

With starter Caleb Williams out with a hamstring injury and backup Tyson Bagent missing most of last week's practices, Keenum wound up getting the start and put together one of the best games of his 15-year career. Keenum propelled the Bears to a win by throwing for 247 yards with two touchdown passes and a rushing score as well.

On the defensive side of the ball, the Bears settled down after an up-and-down first half to put the clamps down on the Eagles offense. Chicago forced three turnovers, including an interception in the end zone by rookie safety Dillon Thieneman to save a touchdown in the first half. After that, the Eagles struggled to move the ball and committed various penalties to push themselves back.

With the win, the Bears improve to 2-1 and keep pace in the NFC North. But all anyone could talk about was Keenum and the performance he had. Here's how the NFL world reacted to the big win.
