COVID spread in America right after the Chiefs won the Super Bowl in 2020. Maybe we win right before another pandemic. It's a sign from above.

Worth it.

The main question that anyone should be asking when it comes to this game.

If the Eagles get down...can Hurts lead a passing attack to bring them back and win them the game? We know Mahomes can because he's shown it time and time again.

The only shot the Eagles have is that they get out to a big enough lead and our offense falters.

My thoughts too. Hopefully our 20 or so scripted plays result in 4 TD's lol

Not a question I'm asking because I already know the answer.

If they get down double digits, they're cooked.

That's the major distinction here - the Chiefs can play from in front or behind. The Eagles are built to play from ahead.

Most Chiefs fans are aware of that. The media is delusional as **** right now. MAYBE Hurts could do it if he was healthy but he isn't. If we get up 14-17 points...good ****ing luck.

In Eagles games that Hurts played in this season, they only trailed in four of those games… two were early 7-0 deficits to Detroit and Houston, they were down 14-0 early to Jacksonville, they trailed Indy 13-3 entering the 4th quarter, and they were down to Washington in the 2nd quarter (in the only game the Eagles lost with Hurts as their starting QB).

Otherwise Hurts has been able to play with leads… mostly big leads… for the majority of the season.

Chiefs offensive line, linebackers and corners are being severely disrespected. 70+ percent of these ESPN talking heads are picking the Eagles. Cliched response is always EAGLES WIN IN DA TRENCHES like it's 1952 and the Chiefs have Dick Vermeils defense.

AJ Brown and Devonta Smith are elite talents in the passing game, this isn't a Tennessee Titans situation, but I'm interested to see if the Chiefs take the ball if they win the coin toss for this reason. Even with that talent you'd probably rather try to get ahead of the Eagles and put some pressure on them for once, they haven't been in that situation a lot and it'd help take them out of their running game.

Patrick is going to complete a behind the back pass this game. I can feel it.

"We didn't see that one in practice..."

AJ Brown played on those Titans team and it was still a Tennessee Titans Situation. Smith's a little better than Corey Davis was at that time, but not substantially so.

The Eagles are closer to the '19 Titans than anyone will acknowledge, IMO.

I really think that the difference in this game will be Pacheco and Mckinnon.

Dial up the screen game to dial back their aggression. Make them think.

The only issue is that if they rush 4 and fall back into zone, the screen game won't work as well.

We've got to get them into the 5-man rush packages and make them man up for it to really be effective.
