So, yeah, I’m not getting through all 16 games before kickoff tonight. And, really, I don’t know how much of any value I have to say about tonight’s game. But I’ll say it anyhow. Because who’s gonna stop me?<\/p>\n
Kansas City<\/a><\/strong> (+3) at Philadelphia<\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>
\nSo the question everyone seems to be asking about this game is, how is Kansas City’s offense going to put up enough points to stay in it? It’s the wrong question, and it’s based on the flawed assumption that Chip Kelly<\/a>‘s system has<\/em> to succeed in the NFL. It doesn’t. And, while the Eagles sure look fast, a 1-1 record built on a narrow victory over a hobbled and rusty Washington Racists<\/a> squad followed by a full-on collapse at home<\/em> against the mighty San Diego Chargers<\/a> isn’t anything anyone should get excited about. The Eagles have no defense. None. And an offense that runs around like crazy isn’t going to change that. The Chiefs, on the other hand, have a defense. It’s a defense that former Eagles coach Andy Reid<\/a> built, in part, to stop offenses like Kelly’s. Kansas City also has an offense that’s capable of putting up points, particularly when they face soft Ds like Philly’s. Chiefs in the “upset.” By a touchdown.<\/p>\n
