Thursday Night Football Pick: Week 3

Last week: 14-2
Season record: 25-7

Kansas City at Philadelphia--Boy, the NFL Network struck gold with this one.  This is the return of Andy Reid to Philadelphia eight months after being canned by the Eagles.  Reid coached the Eagles for 14 years, taking them to the playoffs several times and to the Super Bowl in 2004.  Suffice to say he may know a thing or too about most of the Philly players.  Sure, he's never coached against the riverboat gambler, Chip Kelly, but he has to have some sort of advantage.  Plus, his Chiefs are surprising everyone with a 2-0 start, matching last season's win total already.  The Chiefs are strong on both sides of the ball, and the Eagles are flying high on offense yet MIA on D, so Alex Smith and Jamaal Charles may shred them.  Of course, Kelly will try to tire out the Chiefs' D and try to set a record for the shortest elapsed time for a scoring drive.  Chiefs 34, Eagles 33
