Biggest storylines of 2025 NFL Season: Packers’ Micah Parsons, rising QBs and more

Charissa Thompson, Charles Woodson, Julian Edleman and Jay Glazer discussed the biggest storylines heading into the 2025 NFL Season.

NFL legend Rob Gronkowski thinks the fall of the Kansas City Chiefs from the upper echelon of the league is upon us.

Gronkowski knows a thing or two about winning Super Bowls. He won four of them during his career. But he thinks the Philadelphia Eagles cracked the code teams had been trying to figure out for years when it comes to beating this Patrick Mahomes-led squad.

After the Eagles' 40-22 victory in the 2025 Super Bowl in New Orleans, Gronkowski gave his take.

"The Philadelphia Eagles opened that floodgate of, ‘Hey, if you punch these guys in the face, you take it to them, you come out swinging, they’re gonna fold, and they’re not gonna be the team you were seeing all last year,’" Gronkowski said on "Up & Adams."

The Chiefs have now lost back-to-back games when you include February’s loss in the Super Bowl, after they fell to their AFC West rival, the Los Angeles Chargers, in São Paulo, Brazil, to kick off the 2025 season. Justin Herbert had one of the best games of his career, and the Chargers won 27-21.

While Herbert was carving up the Chiefs’ defense, there was a moment captured of Chiefs defensive lineman Chris Jones getting into it with fellow defensive star Drue Tranquill during a timeout on the sideline.

Gronkowski made that a point of emphasis in his argument.

"What I was surprised about is when things aren’t going their way, as you can see, when they start struggling a little bit, they start yelling at each other," he explained. "The blame game starts going on. You can see it on the sidelines. And that’s not a good situation. You want to come together when you’re down, when things aren’t going your way.

"To see them starting to point fingers is not a good sign."

The Chiefs do have a revenge opportunity this Sunday in their home opener. The Eagles travel to Arrowhead Stadium for a Super Bowl rematch in FOX’s "America’s Game of the Week."

Philadelphia handled the Dallas Cowboys in its season opener, 24-20, as Jalen Hurts rushed for two touchdowns, while the 2024 Offensive Player of the Year, Saquon Barkley, added his first score of the campaign.

The Eagles knew what to do with Mahomes and company back in February, so it will be interesting to see how head coach Andy Reid and the rest of his coaching staff scheme against Philadelphia this time around.
