The NFL’s early season Super Bowl rematch saw a similar result - as the Philadelphia Eagles again vanquished the Kansas City Chiefs
Reigning champions the Eagles ran out 20-17 winners on Sunday evening, with touchdown runs to Saquon Barkley and Jalen Hurts enough to get the Eagles the win, while Philadelphia’s defence held Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes to just 187 passing yards.
The result marks the first 0-2 start to a season for Kansas City since 2014.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce attracts attention as half of the world’s most fashionable power couple and although fianceé Taylor Swift has been spotted prominently at many of his games, it’s thought that she attended yesterday’s match incognito, and arrived behind a screen. Why she did this - if indeed it was her - is not immediately obvious.
The Denver Broncos were left to rue a penalty on a missed field goal attempt as they went down 29-28 to the Indianapolis Colts.
Colts kicker Spencer Shrader missed a 60-yard field goal attempt as time expired, but a penalty on the Broncos moved the ball 15 yards closer and gave Shrader a second attempt, which he duly converted.
The Arizona Cardinals held off a late rally to down the Carolina Panthers 27-22.
Arizona almost gave up a 24-point lead in the second half, but a Calais Campbell sack on Bryce Young as the clock wound down put an end to Carolina’s scoring flurry.

Brandon Aubrey scored a field goal in overtime for the Dallas Cowboys to clinch a 40-37 win over the New York Giants.

Aaron Rodgers’ first home game as a Pittsburgh Steeler ended in a 31-17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks.
Seahawks’ quarterback Sam Darnold connected with Tory Horton for a touchdown in the first quarter before Chris Boswell kicked successive field goals and Rodgers threw to DK Metcalf for Pittsburgh to lead 14-7 at half-time.
The visitors turned the game around as Darnold threw for another touchdown and Jason Myers kicked a 54-yard field goal before a mistake from the Steelers saw them fumble from a kick-off return and George Holani pounced on the loose ball in the end zone.
Kenneth Walker III then rushed for a 19-yard touchdown for the Seahawks to earn their first win of the season.
Mike Vrabel earned his first win as the New England Patriots head coach after they beat the Miami Dolphins 33-27.
