Eagles see red in blown scoring chances in loss to Chiefs

Associated Press  

PHILADELPHIA — Jason Kelce may have been yelling for all of Philadelphia when he shouted “don’t do this!” at an official after a flag was thrown that wiped out an Eagles’ touchdown. The damage was done, an offensive pass interference call in the third quarter took away a Jalen Hurts touchdown pass and the Eagles settled for a field goal. The flags flew against the Eagles more than Patrick Mahomes touchdown passes -- and the Kansas City Chiefs star threw five -- and they had three touchdowns taken off the board because of penalties. “I’m going to go spray some orange juice or something down my throat.” The Eagles moved the ball fine against a Chiefs defense ranked 30th in the NFL: Hurts threw for 387 yards and DeVonta Smith caught seven passes for 122 yards. But that’s self-discipline.” Hurt threw the ball away multiple times on fourth down and said Eagles fans need to keep quiet.
