I’m curious as to whether the Chiefs will use the same game plan as they did in the SB and stop Barkley at all costs or if they saw it didn’t work and they’ll loosen up a bit. I think they still focus on Barkley completely kind of like the Cowboys did.

That’s why I think AJ will have a big game

KC attempting a 58-yard FG ...

and it's no good.

4:54 left in the 1st qtr

I noticed this as well. McLane's guess as the reason is somewhat surprising. Dotson does a great job on run blocking.

perhaps the Birds are being more protective of Dotson, as he seems to be their punt returner after the injury to Shipley.

Edit: Mitchie is being used as KO returner, so perhaps my comment isn't that much of a factor. And Dotson was just in and caught a pass.

TD, Barkley!!!!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

With the PAT, it's 7-0, Birds, with 0:46 left in the 1st qtr.

KC came out on fire. Eagles finally cool them off.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

KC with a 57-yard FG attempt, and it's good.

7-3, Birds

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Also appears their starting LT is injured

Games like this won’t help Patullo. The offense looks pretty archaic so far. The two OL penalties didn’t help on that last possession.

Games like this won’t help Vic D look like Swiss cheese

 

[Pocono Lion]

Trucked by the QB, pretty embarrassing.

Fangio is blitzing too much and they’re losing contain on Mahomes. Amazingly, without Mahomes runs, the Chiefs have done little.

It’s also going to get Mahomes beat up if he continues this.

The Eagles offense looks awful.

 

[WestSideLion]

Elliott clutch!

 

[creamery freak]

Did anyone see Denny Sutton on the sideline for the Eagles? It sure looked like him.

 

[s1uggo72]

The Eagles offense looks awful.

JH has all kinds of time to throw

[Nitt1300]

great stop

 

[Tom McAndrew]

KC goes for it on 4th & 1, and the Birds' D blows the play up for a loss!

Nice 1st drive of the 2nd half for the Birds' D

 

[s1uggo72]

Now either pound it w SB or throw to AJ on time

 

[Nitt1300]

crap

 

[Tom McAndrew]

ugh, KC blitzes the house on 3rd & 9, Barkley steps up to block, there were 2 Chiefs coming up the middle, and he whiffed on both of them

 

[s1uggo72]

Now either pound it w SB or throw to AJ on time

So much for that. Good think SB can run the ball
