The Eagles are still in the hunt. Philadelphia visits Chicago and pulls out a 24-20 win to help keep pace in the NFC East. Donovan McNabb throws for a couple of touchdowns as Philly avoids a third straight loss.
 



CHICAGO -- Close game or blowout, Donovan McNabb didn't care. All that mattered to him was getting the win, no matter how tight it was.

The Philadelphia Eagles finally pulled out a close one and delivered a big hit to the Chicago Bears in the process.

McNabb threw for 244 yards against his hometown team, LeSean McCoy scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 10-yard run following Antonio Dixon's block of a field goal attempt, and Philadelphia came away with a 24-20 victory over the struggling Bears on Sunday night after back-to-back close losses.

"It wouldn't have mattered if we had won 3-2, this was a game we needed to come out and win by any means necessary," McNabb said.
