Eagles have never beaten Andy Reid (0-4). Sounds like some rain in the forecast. Both a Super Bowl rematch and possibly a Super Bowl preview.

Tough facing Reid after a bye week too. His record after bye weeks is well documented. He tends to make excellent use of the extra time.

Eagles need to get back to running the football. It’s a great way to control Spags blitz. Doesn’t matter if a guy is coming or not, he gets accounted for in the run game either way. Hopefully Jurgens coming back helps the Eagles get back to being a dominant run team. This is their first game without Dallas Goedert to help them in the run game. Stoll is going to need to be one hell of a blocker tonight.

This stretch is where the Chiefs are either going to sink or swim. Their schedule's been easy up to this point and they don't seem to have established any consistency on offense.

Cincy won't be the same without Burrow but the Eagles, Bills and Niners all look to be contenders for deep playoff runs.

Reid was eating ribs and making silly commercials this time. We got this.

Eagles need to throw it deep. Max protect and let the wide receivers work. Pick up the blitz and throw over it. Hopefully they can milk it with the run after getting a big lead. That's what hurt us in the Super Bowl, punting it back to them.

If you were ever going to need to suffer through time without Goedert, this is one of those matchups because of how often Spags sends 5 or 6 man pressures. Stoll isn’t even worth getting out in the pattern. Have him protect all game. This allows them to get Swift out in routes. Want to see more of their 2 back package tonight with Gainwell and Swift. Gainwell isn’t a full back by any means but dude is a better blocker than I gave him credit for. He can handle limited duty executing some of those blocks sealing the edge and kicking out ends

This game is a tossup....

Might be the best prime time matchup all season.

Swift was such a nice addition.

My gut feeling is that we lose this one. I don't like the matchup of our patchwork secondary against Patrick Mahomes. We have most guys back now, but the secondary has not played together much, and has not played well really all season.

I don't think either team is as good as it was during the Super Bowl last year. If you're secondary is patchwork then so is our WR corp. I suspect this game is going to be more of a wake up call for one of these two teams more than a display of elite football.

No excuses anymore for Byard and Roby not being up to speed. They’ve been in the building for a month. If the secondary can’t handle these WRs then the Birds have major problems.

One of the biggest matchups of the season - I can’t wait. I’m predicting a Chiefs win but it could go either way.

I think the Eagles match up with the Chiefs. Chiefs are really effective overall but suck in short yardage situations. Great defense this year but I do think the Eagles will still be able to tush push and Chiefs dont have a CB for AJ Brown (if one exists).

On the flip side there is the whole 'Andy Reid with prep' and 'Andy Reid vs former team' angle. Chiefs have been probably the most conservative team in football this year and haven't put the medal down in the 4th quarter at all. I do the the Chiefs save their best plays for their most important games but....this isnt one of their most important games.

Eagles 20
Chiefs 16
