Kansas City vs Philadelphia Game Preview
Why Kansas City Will Win
It might seem like it’s panic time after two straight losses, but the offense is still working just fine. It’s still among the best in the NFL, it’s still the most explosive, and it still making enough big plays to make everyone press.
There are plenty of problems – more on that in a moment – but the passing game should work against an Eagle secondary that finally got pressed last week against Dallas.
