Chiefs vs. Eagles Monday Night Football live updates: Odds, predictions, how to watch

2024-12-24 03:32:37 source: category:Back

A rematch just nine-plus months in the making.

The Eagles and Chiefs played an instant classic in February, with Kansas City clipping Philadelphia's wings in Super Bowl 57. Now, the two contenders meet again in a primetime matchup on "Monday Night Football."

While a decent of chunk of headlines surrounding the Chiefs in recent months has been a romance between No. 87 on the field and No. 1 on most iTunes charts, Kansas City has jumped out to a 7-2 record, but maybe a bit differently than they usually do. The defense has helped push the Chiefs out to a lead in the AFC West, while the offense has shown signs of life, but remains something of a work in progress.

On the other sideline, the Eagles have made a season of close calls. Of Philly's eight wins, five have come by one score, making for an 8-1 record that may not be all that it seems. Still, the Eagles had a statement win of sorts in Week 9 vs. the Dallas Cowboys, downing their division rival and proving they're still soaring above the rest in the NFC.

Call it the Swiftie Bowl. USA TODAY Sports will provide updates for the Week 11 Eagles-Chiefs Super Bowl 57 rematch on "Monday Night Football":

Chiefs vs. Eagles predictions and odds

The Chiefs are favorites to defeat the Eagles, according to BetMGM NFL odds. 

  • Spread: Chiefs (-2.5) 
  • Moneyline: Chiefs (-145); Eagles (+120) 
  • Over/under: 46 

USA TODAY Sports’ staff picks for this game: 

  • Lorenzo Reyes: Eagles 24, Chiefs 21 — This will be fascinating. The environment in Arrowhead will be electric and these are two legitimate Super Bowl contenders. I think the Eagles, though — right now — are more offensively complete. Kansas City’s defense might be the most underrated in the league, but I like Philly to exact a little revenge here in this rematch of Super Bowl 57. 
  • Tyler Dragon: Chiefs 24, Eagles 23 — The main event is fittingly the final game of Week 11. This Super Bowl 57 rematch is easily the game of the week. Both teams had a Week 10 bye. The Eagles are the more complete team and can win in a variety of ways. But the Chiefs are at home, Patrick Mahomes is the best player on the field, the Chiefs have a top-five defense and at some point (you’d think) Kansas City’s wide receivers are going to step up.
  • Safid Deen: Chiefs 27, Eagles 23 — Still the two best teams in the NFL, it’s truly hard to decipher which team has the edge going into this Super Bowl rematch. The Eagles are on a roll on both sides of the football with the best record, while the Chiefs may have their best defense since Patrick Mahomes became their starter. To be the best, you have to beat the best. And I’m going to roll with the defending champs at home in this one. Mahomes will find a way to outplay Jalen Hurts in crunch time to secure the win.
  • Victoria Hernandez: Eagles 27, Chiefs 24 — Get your popcorn ready. In a rematch of last year’s Super Bowl, both teams will be fresh off their bye and Kansas City will have recovered from their jet lag — except for maybe Travis Kelce who took an extra international trip to support boo Taylor Swift. But even if the Eagles are still a bit banged up, they will get revenge against a Chiefs offense that’s struggled to find quite the same prowess this season.
  • Jordan Mendoza: Chiefs 34, Eagles 30 — These two teams gave us one of the highest-scoring Super Bowls the last time they faced off. With both teams eager to prove themselves as the top Super Bowl favorite, expect the offenses to once again go crazy in the rematch. You could go either way, but the crowd at Arrowhead Stadium will make the difference in this one. Karma might be the guy on the Chiefs leading his team to a win.

Eagles vs. Chiefs inactives: Dallas Goedert is out

Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert suffered a forearm injury during Philadelphia's win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9, and will miss Monday night's Super Bowl 57 rematch. In his absence, the Eagles will count on a committee of tight ends to help make up for the loss of Goedert's production. Jack Stoll, Albert Okwuegbunam and Grant Calcaterra will be called on to fill Goedert's shoes. Recently signed wide receiver Julio Jones also could play a larger role in the Eagles offense.

Eagles' inactive players:

  • QB Tanner McKee (third QB)
  • RB Rashaad Penny
  • DT Moro Ojomo
  • OG Sua Opeta
  • TE Dallas Goedert
  • DE Derek Barnett

Chiefs' inactive players:

  • WR Richie James
  • DE BJ Thompson
  • OL Mike Caliendo
  • DT Neil Farrell
  • DE Malik Herring

Taylor Swift's Chiefs allegiance leaves Eagles fans feeling 'betrayed'

For Taylor Swift, these days, "Karma" is "the guy on the (Kansas City) Chiefs."

That makes some Philadelphia Eagles fans wish for a dose of lower-case, not-the-song-title karma Monday night when the Chiefs host the Eagles in a rematch of Super Bowl 57. It’s also a test of the pop star’s allegiances – and people, especially Eagles fans, are paying attention. — Chris Bumbaca

Patrick Mahomes, Jalen Hurts both franchise QBs and winners

Patrick Mahomes has the highest quarterback winning percentage in the NFL since 1970 (for a quarterback with a minimum of 25 starts). The Chiefs' star quarterback has a 71-18 career record, resulting in a .798 winning percentage.

Jalen Hurts has the fifth highest winning percentage. The Eagles' star quarterback has a 31-12 career record. His winning percentage is .721.

The Chiefs (7-2) and Eagles (8-1) are both on top of their respective conferences. Superb quarterback play is a major reason why. — Tyler Dragon
