The day has finally arrived, as the Eagles and Chiefs will meet for the first time since the 38-35 loss to Kansas City in Glendale, Arizona, last February.
Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes will dual as MVP candidates. The Philadelphia defense will look to refocus their efforts with Bradley Roby and other vital defenders returning to the lineup.
Philadelphia has been up and down defensively, and statistically, are still among the best against the rush and middle of the pack against the past despite a mash unit at cornerback.
With kickoff just six hours away, we’re looking at how both teams match up statistically.
