Exactly. A lot of the people picking the Eagles are what I like to call casuals.

It seems, according to the media, we have no chance. Maybe I’ve missed it but outside of KC it seems that Philadelphia has already won. They just gotta show up and it’s over.

That’s my observation as well.

Stop the damn run and we win. Hurts isn't a great passer.

This. Tired of reading Go Birds on every video.

Apparently Jalen Hurts is an unstoppable force. Our MVP (2x) QB is irrelevant, as is our rookie secondary that shut down Burrow.

Not sure I’ll even watch the game.

I think the Cincy game was the most nervous I’ve ever been for any chiefs game, and let me tell you…that’s saying something. I just couldn’t deal with losing to those ****ers again. Especially at arrowhead with a trip to the superbowl on the line.

This week I’m totally chill and relaxed.

It was a legacy defining game for sure. Switched the narrative from Burrow being better than Mahomes to Mahomes being the potential future GOAT. That one game did it.

Ditto. I can't remember enjoying a Chiefs game less going into it. Just a week and game that made my guts turn.

And I'm ready for the slaughter on Sunday at this point lol

They are gonna be pretty disappointed when they don’t see him unless the camera pans the sidelines.

My cousin works for FOX, he said that he once saw Eisen have a temper tantrum towards his staff, told me he had a Bill O’Reilly “F*** it, do it live” moment. LMAO

Barring injuries, this game likely won't be close. Aside from the Eagles being grossly overrated due to their soft schedule, the Chiefs are a horrible matchup for them.

Inflated Sack numbers vs some very bad QBs

9 sacks vs Carson Wentz Washington
4 sacks vs Trevor Lawrence Jags(wk 4)
6 sacks vs Kenny Pickett Pittsburgh
6 sacks vs Tannehill Tennessee (bad and no WRs)
4 sacks vs Daniel Jones/3 Tyrod Taylor Giants
6 sacks vs Justin Fields Bears
6 sacks vs Prescott Cowboys (He passed for 347 yards, 3tds at 10 per attempt)
6 sacks vs Andy Dalton/1 Hill Saints

-They play a zone-based defense primarily and rush 5. The Chiefs will feast against zone teams and have only 7 defending the pass? YES PLEASE. Mahomes and co will cut through them like warm butter.

-CEH ran for 7.3 YPC last year. Different teams but they still have issues stopping the run.

-Chiefs' defense was rehauled and so much better than last season. Hurts struggles against pressure and that's Spags' forte. (Hurts doesn't have a Daniel Sorenson/Ben Neiman/Mike Hughes to pick on this year).

Don't get me wrong. While I do believe they are overrated with grossly inflated stats, they are still a good team and can win Sunday. If they were in the AFC, they would be the 4th best team. If Lamar Jackson was healthy, they'd have been the 5th best team in the AFC.

Speaking of Lamar Jackson, I think Jalen Hurts is a poor-man's Lamar Jackson with much better WR options. Spags owns Jackson, even with bad defenses.

Do you feel better now? Keep typing it enough and it might come true. The poor-mans Lamar Jackson is getting played out quickly.

It's making me surprisingly less amped about Sunday. But getting that second SB for Mahomes and Andy is still a huge thing.

Eagles technically dominated this year. It was one of the softest schedules in the history of the league, but boy did they look good on paper!

Yeah these are the two one seeds. It should be a battle. But we have the qb edge by a wide margin.
