The Kansas City Chiefs faced the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday Night Football, securing a 22-17 victory to improve to 3-0 in the season. Despite a rocky start, quarterback Patrick Mahomes managed to lead his team to success with standout performances from Rashee Rice and others.
While Mahomes initially struggled with accuracy, Rice emerged as the primary offensive target, catching 12 passes for 110 yards and a touchdown. The Chiefs also successfully adapted in the absence of running back Isiah Pacheco, with Carson Steele and Samaje Perine effectively stepping up.
Defensively, Steve Spagnuolo's unit recovered after a shaky start, limiting the Falcons to just three points in the second half, showcasing the resilience of one of the league's top defenses.
