NFL results today: Live recap as the Chiefs edge Eagles in a defensive slugfest
11.02.2026 - 04:00:09
Touchdown! As of today, 2026-02-11, the gridiron is on fire... You came here for NFL results today and the league delivered a cold?weather fistfight: the Kansas City Chiefs survived a brutal defensive duel with the Philadelphia Eagles, stealing a tight win that felt more like a January playoff preview than a mid?February showcase.
The headline: Kansas City 16, Philadelphia 13. No shootout, no 40?burger, just pure, stress?test football. The final snap? A frantic Jalen Hurts heave toward the end zone, batted away at the last second by a converging wall of red jerseys. Arrowhead absolutely lost its mind.
Mahomes finished with 228 passing yards, 1 touchdown, and 1 interception, completing 24 of 37 passes. The stat line won’t melt your phone, but he came up clutch when it mattered most. Late in the fourth quarter, trailing 13–9 and backed up at his own 18, Mahomes stitched together a classic drive: tight window to Travis Kelce on 3rd & 7, a scrambling dart to Rashee Rice on 2nd & 10, and then the dagger — a 22?yard laser to the back of the end zone, toe?tap grab by Rice to put KC ahead for good.
Hurts, on the other side, went 21?for?33 for 206 yards, 0 TDs, 1 INT, and added 49 rushing yards with a short rushing touchdown. Philly leaned into the ground game and RPOs all night, but Kansas City’s front seven swarmed. Hurts was under siege, taking key sacks on third down — including a monster 4th?quarter takedown by Chris Jones that knocked the Eagles just out of field?goal range and flipped the field position battle.
This wasn’t Mahomes at his Madden?cover best. This was the grind?it?out, take?what’s?there, don’t blink version. He avoided the killer mistake in the fourth. Hurts didn’t — his late?third?quarter interception on a deep shot to Brown, snagged by Justin Reid, flipped momentum KC’s way and quieted Philly’s traveling fans.
For Kansas City, this win keeps them right in the hunt near the top of the AFC seeding, neck?and?neck with the other heavyweights. For Philadelphia, this is the kind of loss that stings not because you got blown out, but because you had chances — multiple short?field drives, multiple red?zone opportunities — and only walked away with 13 points. Come tiebreaker time, this one might loom large.
Scroll that #KCvsPHI feed and you’ll see it all: slow?mo clips of the final lob, screenshots circling the DB’s hand on Brown’s shoulder, split?screen comps to past calls. Chiefs fans are laughing it off. Eagles fans are calling for a rulebook rewrite. Typical Sunday night chaos — and exactly why you live on your phone during NFL results today.
For Kansas City, this was a statement that the dynasty isn’t just fireworks and side?arm flicks. When the receivers weren’t creating huge separation and the run game was stuck in neutral, Mahomes trusted his defense and played the long game. That’s championship DNA. Chris Jones and that front controlled the line of scrimmage, and Steve Spagnuolo dialed up just enough pressure to keep Hurts from getting comfortable.
For Philly, the concern is real but fixable. Hurts took too many drive?killing sacks, and the Eagles got a little stubborn with their early?down play?calling in the red zone. They have the horses — Brown, Smith, Dallas Goedert — but tonight they didn’t lean into quick?hit concepts when the Chiefs pass rush started to tee off. Mix it up, protect your guy, and this offense can still be a buzzsaw.
Bold take? Despite the loss, I still see these two on a collision course deep in the postseason. But if we get a rematch, the Eagles better bring an A?plus red?zone script, because KC proved they can win a rock fight without ever breaking 20 points. That's terrifying for the rest of the league.
You want to see exactly how this shakes up seeds, tiebreakers, and who has the inside track to the Lombardi? Don't just guess — line it up against the full league table.

Mahomes vs. Hurts: Not Pretty, But Pure Fight
This wasn’t the fantasy?football dream you might expect when you hear Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts in the same sentence. This was survival mode football.Mahomes finished with 228 passing yards, 1 touchdown, and 1 interception, completing 24 of 37 passes. The stat line won’t melt your phone, but he came up clutch when it mattered most. Late in the fourth quarter, trailing 13–9 and backed up at his own 18, Mahomes stitched together a classic drive: tight window to Travis Kelce on 3rd & 7, a scrambling dart to Rashee Rice on 2nd & 10, and then the dagger — a 22?yard laser to the back of the end zone, toe?tap grab by Rice to put KC ahead for good.
Hurts, on the other side, went 21?for?33 for 206 yards, 0 TDs, 1 INT, and added 49 rushing yards with a short rushing touchdown. Philly leaned into the ground game and RPOs all night, but Kansas City’s front seven swarmed. Hurts was under siege, taking key sacks on third down — including a monster 4th?quarter takedown by Chris Jones that knocked the Eagles just out of field?goal range and flipped the field position battle.
Defenses Owned the Night
You want big plays? They were mostly on the defensive side.- Red?zone stonewall: Early third quarter, Eagles up 10–6, Philly had 1st & goal at the KC 4 after a 38?yard A.J. Brown catch and run. Three straight stuffs on the run, then a Hurts fade broken up by L'Jarius Sneed. Philly settled for a field goal. That four?point swing is basically the final margin.
- Game?changing pick: Late second quarter, Mahomes tried to force a dig route to Kelce. Reed Blankenship jumped it, taking the interception back to the red zone. But again, Kansas City's defense bailed Mahomes out, holding Hurts and forcing another short field goal instead of a touchdown.
- Strip?sack that almost broke it open: Early fourth, Haason Reddick burned the edge, got to Mahomes's blind side, and knocked the ball free. Somehow, Joe Thuney fell on it. If Philly falls on that, they're already in field?goal range and probably push the lead to two scores.
This wasn’t Mahomes at his Madden?cover best. This was the grind?it?out, take?what’s?there, don’t blink version. He avoided the killer mistake in the fourth. Hurts didn’t — his late?third?quarter interception on a deep shot to Brown, snagged by Justin Reid, flipped momentum KC’s way and quieted Philly’s traveling fans.
