The Atlanta Falcons suffered a disappointing 22–17 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night, despite having a chance to win in the final moments. After advancing to the Chiefs' 13-yard line, the Falcons opted for an outside run for Bijan Robinson on a critical fourth-and-1, which resulted in a three-yard loss and turnover on downs.
Head coach Raheem Morris acknowledged the decision-making process behind the play call, emphasizing it was a collaborative effort. Concerns about the effectiveness of the running backs and the execution of the play contributed to the outcome, leaving the team at 1–2 and contemplating missed opportunities.
