Philly put on a show huh?

That was quite the roster Roseman trotted out there last night.

I'm envious...

Eagles edge rusher Josh Sweat said he and his teammates realized early on that they had the Chiefs’ offensive line’s number.

“After a while, it’s just like – cannot go wrong with us right now,” he said. “I said this is just that day. It’s just who’s it gonna be, that’s all it was.”

Their D showed up, but their D didn't always play like that all year. KC looked soft against them. Bad matchups. Howie has a bunch of draft picks as well to replenish what they might lose in free agency. Saquon opens up so much for them offensively.

Yeah, they got a little lucky though. Players like Saquon Barkley are rarely available via trade and Jalen Carter dropping to them in 2023 was similar to how Justin Jefferson slid past 4 teams to land in Minnesota in 2020. Drafting Mitchell and DeJean last year was huge for them. DeJean was considered a 1st rounder by many and fell to the Eagles at 40.

Vikings are only like 7 high quality player away. Interested to Kwesi make a draft trade so he can cut the players in 2-3 years.

Great roster construction. They got home repeatedly. Mahomes took a shot early in the first where his head hit the ground, no one seemed to check on him.

Philly defense dominated. Impressive. There's not much doubt in my mind that if they played like that against us in the playoffs, we'd have been smoked too. Likely any team in the league would have. And I agree, they're set up very well moving forward.

I was sick of KC winning every year so good for the Eagles I guess. On to free agency!

Phily was able to pressure Mahomes with only their DL. Didn't blitz once the entire game.

Games are won in the trenches and both their lines dominated all night, I do not believe they blitzed once and still had 6 sacks and constant pressure. We had to rely on the blitz all year and it left our weak secondary exposed. Philly's formulae is to get the biggest OL possible and it has worked for them and a big reason for Barkley's success this year. KC looked lost and defeated from the start of the game, they just got completely overwhelmed.

As a side note, unlike their opponents like Buffalo who battled back and almost beat them despite so many bad calls going against them, KC had no response when calls finally went against them, just continued to wilt. Not so tough when they were on the other side of it.

The amount of talent Philadelphia has assembled the last few years has really been impressive. Hurts and Barkley are as tough as it gets in trying to defend something that's almost impossible to defend. Great weapons in the passing game. Massive offensive line and top it off with the #1 ranked defense.

I just look at that team and don't see them going anywhere for a while. How far away are the Vikings from being in that conversation? I'd say at least 3 to 4 impact starters. We have work to do this offseason.

The D-line should have been the MVP
