The game at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium saw the Eagles' defense apply consistent pressure, resulting in one sack and nine quarterback hits. The defensive unit also made their presence felt by forcing four three-and-outs and securing an interception that helped keep the momentum on their side.


Philadelphia's offense was equally effective on the ground as they were through the air. They rushed for a total of 114 yards, averaging over four yards per carry, and scored all three of their touchdowns via the run. Their longest rush was an impressive 35-yard dash that showcased their ability to break through Kansas City's defenses.


Special teams contributed significantly with punts totaling 334 yards and seven attempts averaging nearly forty-eight yards each, pinning down Kansas City within their own twenty-yard line once during the game. Additionally, all four kickoffs by Philadelphia resulted in touchbacks, demonstrating both power and precision.


The receiving corps managed to rack up 150 yards with fourteen receptions out of twenty-one targets. Despite not scoring any touchdowns through passing plays, they maintained an average of over ten yards per reception which kept drives alive and contributed to overall yardage gains.


Penalties seemed to be an area where both teams had room for improvement; Philadelphia incurred seven penalties costing them sixty-one yards throughout the contest.


Looking ahead after this hard-fought victory on enemy turf, fans can anticipate another exciting game as Lincoln Financial Field will host its home team against Buffalo Bills on November 26th at 4:25 PM local time (Eastern Time). This upcoming match will be broadcasted live on CBS for fans unable to attend in person but eager to catch every play from home or wherever they may be.
