After a bye week that should allow both teams a renewed freshness, the Eagles and Chiefs are set for a semi-Super Bowl rematch at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium on ESPN’s Monday Night Football. Eagles head coach Andy Reid finished a conference call with several exciting comments about Jalen Hurts, Carter, Fletcher Cox, and Philadelphia’s improved run defense.
The two teams last met on Feb. 12 in Super Bowl LVII. Kansas City defeated Philadelphia 38-35 in that matchup to earn their third Lombardi Trophy in franchise history. The Chiefs enter Monday’s matchup on top of the AFC with a 7-2 record after defeating the Miami Dolphins 21-14 in Germany on Nov. 5.
Kansas City is looking to lock up an eighth-straight AFC West title. Philadelphia is 8-1 and on top of the NFC East after a 33-28 win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9.

Andy Reid on Eagles run defense compared to last year: “Well, they drafted a really good player. And No. 91 doesn’t seem to get old. I’m not sure what you guys asre feeding him. But he is something else. Those cheesesteaks are working.”
