No. 2: Kansas City Chiefs at Philadelphia Eagles: October 3

The Philadelphia Eagles are also on this list because they finished last year with the same record as the Bengals. The Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs don’t meet up that often. So far, the two teams have only faced each other a total of eight times. The meetings have been split evenly between the two teams.

The Eagles might be one of the easier teams to beat this season because the team lacks an experienced wide receiver. Also, they haven’t been able to address their problem with their cornerbacks.

The team finished last year at the bottom of their division in the NFC East. They also have one of the worst secondary rankings in the NFL. Despite that, the Eagles have a pretty good defense and even though they might lack experienced players, they do have a lot of young talent on offense.

That could present a problem for the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Eagles are in a pretty weak division and compared to the Chiefs and other strong teams in other divisions, they might not be able to compete. The Eagles are for sure going to be one of the underdogs this season and they will be going against a powerhouse in the NFL.

The team didn’t seem to make any major changes in their off-season that could make them a serious threat to the Chiefs.
