The Bears will be down one of their top tight ends on Sunday night, while the Eagles declared Brian Westbrook inactive, as expected.
Tight end Desmond Clark will miss the game for Chicago, so Greg Olsen could be set up for another big game. Also out for Chicago: Kevin Payne, Juaquin Iglesias, D.J. Moore,
Lance Louis, Matt Toeaina, Jarron Gilbert and Pisa Tinoisamoa.
The Eagles continue to be without Westbrook and wide receiver Kevin Curtis. Also out for Philly: Akeem Jordan, Quintin Demps, Stacy Andrews, P.J. Hill, and Mike McGlynn.
LeSean McCoy will start at running back.
Kevin Kolb is the third quarterback, so Michael Vick can take snaps throughout the game. If Donovan McNabb were to get injured, Kolb would still very likely replace him. At that point, Vick would no longer be eligible to play.

I am confused why wouldn't vick be eligible to play if McNabb got hurt?
I am shocked, shocked to see Stacy Andrews is hurt and unable to play. There hasn't been someone in the league with his level of toughness since Shawn Andrews.
