I have to say, though, and I think this is a good start to a new season
00:04
because I didn't say a lot of great things about Kansas City last year.
00:07
I don't think they were done a lot of favors by the schedule makers.
00:12
I think starting your season in an international game is difficult.
00:17
The fact that Kansas City follows it up, which almost seems impossible,
00:21
on a rest disadvantage in a Super Bowl rematch because Philly plays on Thursday,
00:28
I thought that was a tough little one-two combination
00:32
to get the season underway for Kansas City.
00:34
Yeah, and you've got a time difference.
00:38
So this is interesting, and I always wondered about this
00:41
because the league really has not been asked this before
00:42
in terms of early season scheduling and divisional rivals and so forth.
00:47
While it might seem kind of odd to put a division rival like Kansas City
00:52
and the Chargers in week one, they said they're all about matchups.
00:57
They don't care which week it is.
00:58
And, yes, we all love those divisional rivals playing each other.
01:02
Your Eagles will play the commanders two out of the last three weeks of the season.
01:06
But they had no problem.
01:07
We mentioned earlier the Cowboys-Eagles.
01:09
They have no problem having Chiefs Chargers early
01:12
because it's just all about the matchups.
01:13
I'm glad they addressed that because they've not really talked about that before.
01:17
So when you see these divisional rivals play early,
01:20
which you scratch your head like, why would you do that?
01:22
It's all about the matchups, particularly the quarterback matchups,
01:25
Herbert versus Mahomes.
01:26
That matters a lot to the league.
