The final score was 38-35. A healthy Mahomes and the addition of Barkley wouldn't have resulted in more points. It wasn't a good game for either defense.
I think our team is better than the one we had in 22. [Reply]

Im not sure he’s 100%. And without his legs he feels a little like Russell Wilson. When his games are bad, they are really bad. And it’s not because he’s dealing with pressure or his elite WRs can’t get open or his mvp caliber rb isn’t opening up the passing game. [Reply]
The one area that the Eagles are significantly better than when KC played them two years ago is at RB.
Mahomes is healthy and has better weapons this time vs the last time. Also let’s not forget that the following players were rookies in that SB.
Karlaftis
McDuffie
Watson
Williams
Cook (for better or worse)
Chenel
Pacheco
Mahomes has:
A better RT (in comparison to Wylie)
KHunt
Juju (as a #4 WR vs a #1)
Worthy (vs Toney)
Brown (vs Skyy)
Hopkins (vs MVS)
Taking nothing away from Philly, but it’s not like Mahomes willed a bunch of scrubs to a SB. KC has a lot of talent with a HOF HC and a HOF (should be at least) DC. [Reply]

Is Hurts dangerous enough on the zone read right now to exploit Jones at RE if that's where he spends a good portion of time?
He also gave Spencer Brown the business some.
Spags allowing Chris to become a true chess piece along the front transformed the ceiling of this dynasty. Can you imagine the meat left on the bone if they didn't start letting him align all over?
Anyways, I foresee Jalen Hurts getting sacked quite a bit as he struggles to sort out pressures. Much like the MNF game of 2023. [Reply]

He ****ed his knee up last week and was playing hurt even before that. Rest may help there. [Reply]

I didn't get to see the game yesterday, so I don't know how Saquon broke off his big runs - but against the Rams, all of his long runs came when the Rams were playing single-high.
They shut him down for the most part when playing 2 deep. [Reply]

This is the first time an AFC team has played the same NFC team four years in a row. And it'll be five years in a row because Chiefs-Eagles is scheduled next year. [Reply]
