The Eagles come into Thursday night’s home game with a reasonably healthy roster. The worst status for any player on the injury report is “probable.” However, there are six players listed with minor injuries:

Doubtful: TE Anthony Fasano (ankle)

Philadelphia has an offensive wizard on its side of the field, the man brought in to soothe the fans who had grown weary of Reid. Chip Kelly hasn’t been charged with too much -- only to bring the first NFL championship to the Eagles’ faithful since 1960 in the days of Chuck Bednarik and Norm Van Brocklin.

Kansas City won two games in 2012 despite having six Pro Bowl players -- including four on defense. The Chiefs already have two wins this season, largely due to a defense that refuses to yield points. New defensive coordinator Bob Sutton has his unit allowing only nine points per game ... and that includes a safety that was scored against the special teams in Week 1.
