Matchups We Love

Jalen Hurts (QB, PHI)

A Super Bowl rematch in prime time is an absolutely amazing way to end Week 11. Get out the popcorn for this one as these two juggernauts collide. Kansas City's defense has come a long way, but there's no reason to go away from Hurts, who has been unstoppable, especially at the goal line.

A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith (WR, PHI)

A.J. Brown is on pace for career highs everywhere and DeVonta Smith gets the benefit of absorbing many of Dallas Goedert's targets now that he's sidelined for multiple weeks. Trent McDuffie is the 17th-highest-ranked cornerback in coverage, according to PFF. He's a talented player who presents a tough matchup, but not one that these two can't conquer.

Since the beginning of the 2022 season, the Eagles are 10-3 when Devonta/AJ combine for 150+ receiving yards, with two of those losses coming with Gardner Minshew at QB.

Patrick Mahomes (QB, KC)

Traveling to Germany was not kind to Mahomes and Co. They scored two offensive touchdowns against Miami, both of which came in the first half, before being shut out in the second. Hosting the Eagles at Arrowhead is good news for the offense as a whole, including Mahomes, who despite his ups and downs, has a history of showing up in the big moments.

Travis Kelce (TE, KC)

After spending his bye week touring South America with his new bestie, Kelce figures to be recharged and ready to roll.

Other Matchups

D'Andre Swift (RB, PHI)

Swift's workload has still been among the best, averaging about 19 touches per game over their past three contests. The issue has been just eight targets across that span, compared to seven per game from Weeks 4 through 6.

— Sidelines - Eagles 🦅🏈 (@SSN_Eagles) November 16, 2023

Additionally, he's found the end zone just one time, partially because Hurts is automatic at the goal line, and partially because Kenneth Gainwell has scored twice. This matchup has the potential to be a shootout. If it gets anywhere near the 71 points they combined for in the Super Bowl, someone like Swift will be a huge reason why.

Isiah Pacheco (RB, KC)

It's going to be tough sledding for Pacheco against Philly's stout defensive front. It's definitively the strength of their defense, forcing Pacheco to generate points from other avenues such as touchdowns, which he has just one of in the last four games, or receptions, which he's averaging about three per week during the same timeframe. The ceiling hasn't been there for Pacheco recently, but unlike Swift, he's likely to be the beneficiary of any goal-line attempts.

Rashee Rice and Skyy Moore (WR, KC)

Rice's lack of volume continues to be frustrating. Rice ran fewer routes than Justin Watson and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. He also had fewer targets than Skyy Moore. Fortunately, he came away with a touchdown, but it's tough to trust his usage.

The matchup sets up well against a secondary that was roasted by Washington for the second time this year before their bye. Rice is still the preferred candidate for a big play or blow-up game, but there's also a chance one of the ancillary pieces comes through instead.

Woke up this morning telling myself Rashee Rice will get me 40 points for me to win my matchup.

This is how my Monday is going.
