They just totally got out schemed by Reid and bienemy when it came to the chiefs offense vs the eagles defense.
As an Eagles fan I was afraid of this the game before. I thought Shanahan was going to out scheme Gannon but he somehow didn’t account for Hassan Reddick (you can’t block him with George kittle. That led to the purdy injury).
Unfortunately for the Eagles multiple starters on defense are free agents. Anyone who gets bradberry next year is getting an absolute stud at corner.

Probably going to be 16-20m for 4 or 5 years for Bradberry.
To compete against the mobile QB's you need your Edges to maintain the pocket your DT's to penetrate up the middle, smaller faster LB's that can cover like Milano for the Bills and CB's that can play press coverage.
The safeties need to be good in coverage and run support.
You are not going to stop these modern offences that have a good QB you just have to let them march between the 20 yard lines then defend the redzone.
