The defending NFL champions arrive in Jacksonville with a 0-1 record after a 21-20 home loss to the Detroit Lions in the opening matchup of the NFL season 10 days ago. The Jaguars come into their home opener with a 1-0 record after last Sunday’s 31-21 victory over the Indianapolis Colts.

This will be the third meeting of these two clubs in the last calendar year. The last two were both on GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. In Week 10 of 2022, the Chiefs turned in a solid 27-17 victory. Then in the postseason’s Divisional round, Kansas City collected a 27-20 win to move on to the AFC Championship.

Doug Pederson is now in his second year as the Jaguars’ head coach. He served as the Eagles’ head coach from 2016 through 2020. But before becoming a head coach, he spent a total of seven seasons as an assistant to head coach Andy Reid in both Philadelphia and Kansas City. He finished that run as the Chiefs’ offensive coordinator from 2013 through 2015. In 2017, he led Philadelphia to victory in Super Bowl LII — and last season, he took Jacksonville to the playoffs for the first time since 2017. But now in three games as a head coach — including one game while with the Eagles — Pederson has yet to win a game against his former boss.

In 2022, Reid collected his second NFL championship in four years. Now holding the best coaching record in Chiefs’ franchise history, he hopes to extend a streak of seven AFC West titles and five AFC championship appearances — and ultimately, collect back-to-back Super Bowl victories.
