E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!! Birds - Chiefs Game Thread

[Tom McAndrew]

@sluggo72 -- it appears that RT Lane Johnson is out for a personal issue. As such, only one of the starters on the OL (at the beginning of the season) will be in action today. That's not a good recipe for winning a match.

Nice to see Andy back in town. I hope we can delay him from getting his 100th win with the Chiefs for one more week.

Go Birds!

Let’s go Eagles 🦅

 

[WestSideLion]

So they blew a timeout on 4th and 3 to then kick a FG? Odd decision.

 

[WestSideLion]

For those counting, that Hurts miss of a wide open Ertz cost them 4 points.

 

[jjw165]

Hurts had Ertz open in the end zone but the pass was overthrown. Eagles settle for the FG and lead 3-0 after the first drive of the game.

 

[WestSideLion]

It’s going to be a long day for the Eagles D.

 

[jjw165]

Dang, Tyreke Hill is super fast. TD Chiefs.

 

[WestSideLion]

Andre Dillard strikes on 1st and goal. What a killer holding penalty.

 

[McCloudersportLion]

It hits the Goe Dert in the endzone again

 

[WestSideLion]

Nice TD drive there! They gutted through the adversity. The play calls have been stellar so far. Where was this last week? 🤷

 

[WestSideLion]

KC with a long TD drive. The Eagles had them at 3rd and 12 deep in their own territory, but Barnett lost contain and let Mahomes scramble for the first. The rest is history.

Jalen’s got this.

 

[WestSideLion]

Jalen’s got this.

Oof. Hurts with an awful throw and he’s lucky it wasn’t a pick.

He’ll learn from it…or not.

 

[WestSideLion]

Dillard. Damn it.

 

[WestSideLion]

This is why they are a bad team. Dillard penalty negates a TD. And this may be where KC pulls away. That’s now 8 points left off the board by mistakes.

Thks for that update. I heard they only had Kelce. Be curious to know the personal issue

 

[McCloudersportLion]

Now ANDY did ya gameplan for that one,
Or were ya deep in a cheesesteak with Big Pun?

 

[jjw165]

Dillard with 3 penalties today.

Another bad throw by Hurts negates another TD. He had Ward wide open on what should have been an easy 6.

 

[Pocono Lion]

Not going to beat the Chiefs by kicking FG’s.

I think Ward should have caught that.

 

[WestSideLion]

Dillard with 3 penalties today.

Barnett is killing them too. Those Eagles first rounders on full display today.

 

[WestSideLion]

That long KC TD drive may have done it. Chiefs get the second half kick and can pull away. Oh well.

 

[WestSideLion]

Painful.

 

[WestSideLion]

Great interception by the Eagles to start the second half. They have a shot to hang around.

 

[jjw165]

Interception Eagles!

 

[WestSideLion]

This team just can’t get out of its own way. Christ.

That’s now three 1st and goals where they settled for FGs. With two TDs negated by penalties.

 

[jjw165]

This team just can’t get out of its own way. Christ.

Yep, keep shooting themselves in the foot.

 

[WestSideLion]

Long, balanced TD drive for KC. That’s the game.

 

[jjw165]

28-23 Chiefs. Gainwell scores for the Eagles. They’re hanging around. 12:42 left to play.

 

[WestSideLion]

TD Eagles. Can they somehow get a stop on D a d capitalize? They’re hanging around.

 

[psuno1]

Is Sanders hurt? or Gainwell just beating him out of playing time?

 

[McCloudersportLion]

WAOW THAT GUY EXPLODES OFF THE LINE QUICKER THAN RUDIE BUTTIGER

The Eagles are all kinds of sloppy on both lines. The silly penalties have been the story of this game.

 

[delcoLion]

Eagles looked much better but KC has too much speed and too many offensive threats. I may be jumping the gun but Fletcher Cox looks to be finished as a top DT.

Take away a few dumb penalties and the Eagles could win this game.

 

[WestSideLion]

Bummer. Second long TD taken off the board by WR going out in two games.

That’s coaching.
