Let's Talk About the Eagles (https://chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=350863)

I mean, I had hella respect for how hurts played in the super bowl last year. But something is just off with their offense more than ours. Hurts is really being saved by throwing up lots of 50/50 balls to outstanding WRs and even still the offense is lackluster. If we can eliminate the big play, that's huge. And they'll especially need it if they're playing without goedert

It's time for our offense to step up. If not, we probably lose.

They need to get their shit together for 2nd half of season.

btw this game is going to be 38-27 Chiefs victory

But that DL is as good as pretty much any in the league, significantly better than MIA, and apparently, we had some trouble with their pass rush. I'm inferring that from what I've read since I didn't actually get to see the MIA game. I'm guessing our quick passing game needs to be on point for this one.

However the Chiefs generate points, whether they run it or throw it, they just need to score more points than what they've been averaging over the last month.

If KC can be more efficient on offense than they have been recently, at least get back to what they were doing through the first 4-5 weeks, Chiefs probably win, assuming the defense continues to dominate.

Guessing it'll be something like 23-20 if PHI continues to have issues with their passing game and our offense can exploit their issues in the secondary, while keeping them honest with a consistent rushing attack. Only issue with that, is the fact that PHI has the best run defense (yds/gm), and our rushing game is ranked something like 18th?

My hope is that the bye will give Andy and our passing attack whatever it is they need to take a couple steps upwards and forwards. Andy's been a wizard about coming off the bye his entire career, so I feel relatively confident about that.

Anyway, should be a pretty tight game, but we should learn a lot about our team overall regardless.

From what I remember, we had trouble with their stunts. I'm really not sure why that is because the Chiefs offensive line is full of veterans. I'm sure they have talked about this on the bye and have worked on being better there.

Fingers crossed but with all these 50/50 balls hurts throws I am a little nervous the refs will be conscious of the holding call on juju. We may need to play the ball a little looser than usual. But it's just the only way I see them moving the ball much on us.

I'm going to be at this game, really excited! I've never been to NFL game primetime!

Sitting in 123 too so great view

Nice! I can't wait to get back to Arrowhead... Feels like a long time.

How did you get your hands on The NFL script playbook?

A huge difference in this game could be Hurts not running because of his knee.

Over the last three games he's averaging 21 rushing yards per game and 2.52 YPC.

Suffice it to say that's not the 70 yards and 3 TD he had in the SB.

And get ready to hear the knee used as an excuse if they lose.

I trust Andy after a bye. Checks record.

It's a much smaller sample size but I think he's only one game over .500 when the other team is also coming off a bye. But the last game in that scenario was also Philly and that worked out.

Philadelphia Eagles vs. Kansas City Chiefs

Quote:

The game of the week is the last matchup on the Week 11 slate, featuring a Super Bowl rematch at Arrowhead between the Chiefs and Eagles. Both teams are well-rested coming out of their Bye Week and each defensive line unit ranks inside the top-five across the league.

Whether it’s Chris Jones (DT – Chiefs) and Jalen Carter (DT – Eagles), or Haason Reddick (DE – Eagles) and George Karlaftis (DE – Chiefs) on the edges, Philadelphia and Kansas City have game-changing playmakers along their defensive fronts. Each team’s offensive line units are equally talented, with the Eagles holding a marginal edge over the Chiefs. It’ll be intriguing to watch how Kansas City dials up its game plan against the Eagles, who are a disruptive group up front in the run and passing game, while their weakness all season has tended to be defending the pass.

Mahomes hasn’t had elite numbers in most games this season, but expect him to take to the air early and often, targeting Travis Kelce (TE – Chiefs) and Rashee Rice (WR – Chiefs) as his favorite options in the Chiefs’ passing attack. Rice should be viewed as a low-end WR2 with high-end WR2 upside, while Kelce’s poor outing in Week 9 against Miami should turn into the normal double-digit production we expect, especially playing a defense allowing the 11th-most fantasy points to tight ends in 2023.

Isiah Pacheco (RB – Chiefs) gets downgraded to RB3 territory, but we could see Jerick McKinnon (RB – Chiefs) get more usage as a pass-catcher out of the backfield. Mahomes’ mobility gets him out of trouble in the pocket, so expect the Eagles’ defensive line to attempt containing him and all Chiefs’ running backs with their elite run defense on the road in Week 11.

Chiefs line shifts to -3.

63% of bets are on the Eagles.

The Eagles LT has allowed 6 sacks.

If Hurts doesn't run well we have a shot to have a good game defensively.

Eagles giving up 99.9 QB rating to WRs, 14 TD

130.5 QB rating to TEs, 5 TD

The ingredients are all there for the Chiefs to win.

We aren't giving up 27pts dude.

I'm thinking more like 24-19 KC.

My stance lately has been give us at least 24pts on offense the rest of the season and we don't lose again.

24-20 chiefs

we stop them on 4th and goal to win
