The Philadelphia Eagles once again got the better of the Kansas City Chiefs as the reigning NFL champions came away 20-17 winners in the Super Bowl rematch on Sunday evening.
Touchdown runs to Saquon Barkley and Jalen Hurts proved to be just enough to get the Eagles across the line, while Philadelphia’s defence held Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes to just 187 passing yards.
The result marks the first 0-2 start to a season for Kansas City since 2014.
The Denver Broncos were left to rue a penalty on a missed field goal attempt as they went down 29-28 to the Indianapolis Colts.
Colts kicker Spencer Shrader missed a 60-yard field goal attempt as time expired, but a penalty on the Broncos moved the ball 15 yards closer and gave Shrader a second attempt, which he duly converted.
Hurts threw it up and DeVonta Smith was there ‼️
