1.) Kareem Hunt is Legit
Kareem "The Dream" Hunt. Chiefs fans you are not dreaming, Hunt is the real deal. He finished the game with 13 carries for 81 yards and two touchdowns on the ground plus three catches for 28 yards. He is a do it all running back in an Andy Reid offense which is gold.
2.) Darren Sproles is the Eagles running back
Sproles is the main running back for the Eagles. He finished with 10 carries and two catches. All other Eagles running backs finished with a combined eight touches. Sproles is clearly the best running back for the scheme that the Eagles are running. Expect the veteran to continue to get work.

3.) Alex Smith is still Alex Smith
Smith comes back to earth in Week 2. Smith finished with 251 passing yards and one touchdown. The Chiefs played conservatively like we expected for the season. The Chiefs are 2-0 and look solid on both the sides of the football. As long as Smith plays clean football this will be a tough team to beat.
The Eagles will play the New York Giants in Philadelphia in Week 3. The Chiefs will travel to Los Angeles to battle the Chargers in Week 3.
