Eagles-Chiefs looks like tempting game to open 2023 regular season

Play it again, why not? The NFL has the delicious option of having the Chiefs playing host to the Eagles to open the 2023 season

The 2022 NFL season is barely over. That means the time is right to start thinking about what teams will play in the 2023 season opener on a Thursday Night in September.

Why not play it again? Super Bowl 57 was brilliant as the Kansas City Chiefs knocked off the Philadelphia Eagles, 38-35, on Sunday at Arizona’s State Farm Stadium.

And the teams that battled for the NFL championship happen to be scheduled to meet at Arrowhead Stadium in 2023.

A look at the Chiefs’ schedule shows a home game with Philadelphia firmly planted on their sked.

It shouldn’t take much thinking — it would actually be overthinking — to pass up a doozy of a rematch. That said, the Super Bowl champs are also set to face the Cincinnati Bengals and Buffalo Bills at Arrowhead in 2023.

The Super Bowl rematch on the menu for the first week of next season already sounds delicious.
