Eagles off to slow start in second half

The Eagles started the second half with the ball, but they weren't able to get anything rolling on offense against Chiefs. 

Both of the Birds first two drives went three-and-out, including one with a questionable third down play call. 

In 1-yard situations, the Eagles have ran the "Brotherly Shove" without hesitation. But this time, the Eagles handed it to Swift, which resulted in a loss and led to a punt. 

For a team with A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith on the outside, it was an odd one, especially when you consider Jalen Hurts has been playing banged up. 

They're still only down by 10 points, so maybe they can get something going eventually. But thus far, it hasn't been pretty.

Chiefs lead Eagles at halftime

After an ugly rainy half of football, the Chiefs lead the Eagles, 17-7, on Monday night at Arrowhead Stadium. 

Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes have each tossed interceptions and both offenses have been up and down thus far. 

Hurts was under constant pressure in the first half. He's been sacked five times, fumbled and tossed an interception. Overall, he's completed 5 of his 7 passes for 46 yards.

Travis Kelce's 4-yard touchdown reception gave the Chiefs a 14-7 lead over the Birds late in the second quarter. Justin Watson scored for the Chiefs early in the first quarter on a 3-yard touchdown pass from Mahomes. 

Entering the game, the Eagles had one of the best-rushing defenses in the league, but they haven't been able to slow down Kansas City's rushing attack on Monday night. 

Chiefs tailback Isiah Pacheco has 66 yards on 12 carries and Mahomes has scampered for 29 yards as he continues to be a pain for Philadelphia's defensive lineman. The Chiefs have recorded 121 total rushing yards through two quarters. 

Meanwhile, D'Andre Swift and DeVonta Smith have been the only positives for the Birds' offense. 

Swift scored Philadelphia's lone touchdown to tie the game in the first quarter to go along with 47 yards on eight carries. Smith leads the Birds in receiving with 31 yards on two catches.

Jalen Hurts tosses INT

L'Jarius Sneed intercepted Jalen Hurts early in the second quarter on a intended pass for A.J. Brown.
