CHICAGO'S Matt Forte bounced back from two costly turnovers as the Bears beat the Philadelphia Eagles 30-24 in the NFL on Monday.
Quarterback Jay Cutler threw a go-ahead 5-yard TD pass to Earl Bennett in the fourth quarter, capitalizing on the work of Forte, who ran for 133 yards.
It was a crushing loss for the Eagles (3-5), who blew a fourth-quarter lead for the fourth time this season. Their last chance evaporated when Jeremy Maclin fell and was tackled at the Bears 30-yard line after a 9-yard catch on fourth-and-10 with just under two minutes left.
The defending NFC East champions trail the New York Giants (6-2) by three games.
Chicago (5-3) won its third straight game, but remains third in the NFC North behind Green Bay (8-0) and Detroit (6-2).
Philadelphia's LeSean McCoy's went on a 33-yard touchdown run following Forte's second fumble, giving the Eagles a 24-17 lead in the third quarter, but the Bears answered with 13 straight points.
Robbie Gould kicked a 38-yard field goal to cut it to 24-20, and then Chicago's defense forced an Eagles punt.
The Bears drove 51 yards for the go-ahead score with Cutler tossing a 5-yard TD pass to Bennett over Asante Samuel for a 27-24 lead.
