Eagles vs. Chiefs how to watch TV odds pick as Andy Reid seeks NFL history in return to Philadelphia

For the first time since Week 10 of the 2015 season, the po se s an under .500 record. What once seemed unfathomable with at quarterback and Andy Reid as head coach happened when Kansas City fell to the last week and dropped to 1-2 on the year. Two hard-fought, one-po se sion lo ses in as many weeks hurt Kansas City, which sits in last place in the AFC West heading into the fourth week of the year.Kansas City Joonas Donskoi Jersey 's cure for the losing streak may be the , coming off an embarra sing lo s to the on "Monday Night Football." Head coach Nick Sirianni had the worst game of his young career, only getting the ball to his running backs three times and running no motion plays in the blowout defeat. Philadelphia has lost two straight games as well, struggling to find any continuity on either sides of the ball. The Eagles also lead the league with 35 penalties and are on pace for the most in NFL history.Reid -- the winningest head coach in Eagles' history -- returns to Philadelphia for just the second time since the franchise fired him at the conclusion of the 2012 season. Reid had 140 victories in his 14 years with the Eagles (regular season and postseason), while he currently has 99 in his eight-plus seasons with the Chiefs. A victory Sunday against Philadelphia would give Reid his 100th win in Tommy Wingels Jersey Kansas City, making him the first coach in NFL history to win 100 games with two different franchises. An emotional return for Reid awaits as Mahomes faces the Eagles for the first time.Both the Chiefs and Eagles will seek to get back to .500 in this interconference showdown.

A fumble when the Chiefs were in field goal range cost them against the , and three first-half turnovers -- plus an interception with under two minutes left -- led to their lo s to the Chargers.Kansas City is a better team than Philadelphia, but turnovers are an equalizer. The Chiefs have six turnovers on their last 13 po se sions, a major problem for winning games. The Chiefs defense is also an i sue, allowing the most points per game (31.7) and yards per play (6.97) in the league. They also have just four sacks through three games and have allowed touchdowns on 12 of opponents' 13 red zone drives (92.3%) -- the latter of which is fourth-worst in the NFL.Kansas City has its problems, but they can correct them by Chris Tierney Jersey not making simple mistakes. Holding the Eagles to field goals and not committing giveaways would be a start.Eagles run offense vs. Chiefs run defenseIf there was any week for Sirianni to run the ball, this is it. Philadelphia needs to keep Kansas City's offense off the field, so the best way to accomplish that is to run the football. (The Eagles gave just three carries to running backs last week.) Kansas City allows 160.3 rush yards per game (second-most in NFL) and 5.4 yards per carry (third-worst in NFL). How do the Eagles counteract? Give the ball to , who averages 8.9 yards per carry on first down -- the highest Brent Burns Jersey mark in the NFL. The Eagles average 5.4 yards per carry, which is second in the NFL. Philadelphia just throws the ball too much, so it needs to run the ball and sustain drives. Their 6.45 yards per play average is sixth in the NFL, so Philadelphia can move the ball.Sirianni just has to commit to the run more, especially against Kansas City.The Eagles and Chiefs are both on two-game losing streaks, so something has to give. But the Chiefs are 7-point road favorites (odds via) for a reason. Philadelphia struggled to get pre sure on last week, Marc-Edouard Vlasic Jersey leading to big plays by the Cowboys offense. The same can be expected this week with Mahomes and all the playmakers the Chiefs have. Philadelphia has just one takeaway in the first three games -- a number that must increase if the Eagles are going to beat Kansas City. They also have to control time of po se sion and contain , who has at least six catches for 75 yards in all three games this year. This is a tall task for Philadelphia against a hungry Kansas City team. This is just a bad week to face the Chiefs.Chiefs 37, Eagles 20
