Yeah, their secondary played really well.
When they didn't, we didn't make 'em pay for it.
They simply beat the brakes off us and I don't see what else to say about it. They were better across the board. I can't think of a position group for KC that outplayed the Eagles group. Their special teams even outplayed ours.
It was a top to bottom ass-kicking.
I do wish we'd stop saying our DL played poorly, though. This idea that we never got pressure on Hurts is just wrong. A) We were playing very very gap sound in an attempt to stop the Eagles rushing attack and it worked to perfection. B) We did get pressure on Hurts and when that happened, he handled the pressure better than Mahomes did, either by running for yardage or standing in and delivering the pass. And Hurts typically got juuuuust enough time for our coverage to break down. Even McDuffie wasn't immune.
We just got beat. Everywhere.
But the DL does deserve some credit for playing its ass off.
