The Chiefs arent going to be able to block the Eagles from what I saw tonight and most of their season. i can guarantee you that.

This might be a case where I’d change my vote if there wasn’t a bye week. An extra week to heal up, though? Chiefs.

Eagles, far better defense and the Chiefs will have to face a top 5 offense with an actual offensive line.

Chiefs, not a tough decision.
By far the best QB the Eagles have faced this season. And Hurts looked pretty bad against the 49ers.

Chiefs have a fairly weak secondary and their pass rush will be negated by Philly's o-line far more. Eagles control as usual with the ground game, and then Hurts can do damage with the better receivers and his own rushing ability if needed.

I got the Chiefs but a lot will depend on how much they can heal up in the next 2 weeks. Mahomes' ankle, Kelce's back, that #1 corner Sneed, all their WRs who got hurt tonight... The Eagles are a great team too but if healthy I think Mahomes is the difference maker over Hurts who has been great but not quite on Mahomes/Burrow/Allen's level.

The best two teams in the NFL are there.
Too bad there’s no one to cheer for .

How many of KC’s weapons will actually be fully healthy? If they are limited going to be hard against a deep Eagles DL and strong secondary.
Hurts needs to play a lot better.

Thank you, Bill!

If the game was played one week from today, Chiefs win. Adding an extra week to rest up Mahomes and Kelce? Chiefs are going to win comfortably.
I’ve been saying it all day - the AFC Championship Game was the Super Bowl. Joe Sheisty wasn’t gonna lose it two years in a row, but the Chiefs are actually a worse matchup for the Eagles.
The Eagles are fraudulent. The easiest road to a Super Bowl probably ever. The Giants stink, and the 49ers literally didn’t have a QB - just someone to hand the ball off. Remember, it was actually a tied game until the refs marched the Eagles down the field late in the 2nd quarter, and then the 49ers shot themselves in the foot with this no-name QB. Oh, and that was with the refs handing the Eagles their 7 points, as their one scoring drive should have a turnover on downs.
The QB gap in this game is huge. One is the best in the league, the other isn’t very good. Eagles have weapons but if Hurts plays anything like he did today, this game is over at the half.

It's been a decade Andy Reid coaching against the Eagles isn't particularly interesting as a storyline. How many times have the rosters turned over since then.

Eagles are a better team but KC's advantage at QB is huge and I can't overlook that in a one off.

I'm hoping the week off gets the Chiefs mostly healthy, but the Eagles present some terrible matchup issues for the Chiefs.
If Mahomes' ankle isn't significantly better then it could be a rough night for the Chiefs.
If it is a lot better though then I like their chances.
