The moment we've long waited for is finally here as the Chiefs host the Eagles today in a thrilling Monday Night Football matchup.

You already know my score prediction for the game as well as my best bets for Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, but what about some bold predictions?

It's the most anticipated game of the year, so let's spice things up. Here are three bold predictions for Chiefs vs. Eagles tonight:

3 Bold Predictions for Chiefs vs. Eagles

1. Chiefs Hold AJ Brown UNDER 60 Receiving Yards

This is admittedly a lot to ask of the Chiefs' defense. AJ Brown averages over 111 receiving yards per game and ripped off six straight 125+ yard performances during the season.

However, LJarius Sneed and Trent McDuffie are not afraid. Tyreek Hill was averaging over 125 yards per game before Kansas City's dynamic duo held him to just 62 and I foresee a similar outcome unfolding tonight.

Of all the opposing No. 1 receivers the Chiefs have played, only Amon-Ra St. Brown finished with 70+ receiving yards and that was way back in Week 1.

Pro Football Focus reports that the Chiefs allow just 4.66 yards per man coverage snap, the fifth-best figure in the NFL. Expect physicality at the line of scrimmage and a healthy dose of man to slow Brown as the Chiefs come out on top.

Brown isn't the only player I expect the Chiefs to slow down, though, as you'll see on the next page.
