However, the price tag may have been deceiving.
Multiple players have spoken out about the conditions they were up against on Sunday.
One of which is the former Cardinal Hasson Reddick

Some are even pointing out that the Eagles were extremely limited in their defensive pressure claiming they could not get to Patrick Mahomes without slipping.
