After a wild Week 2, Kirk Cousins and the Falcons host Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football.
LIVE: Follow Chiefs vs. Falcons updates from 'Sunday Night Football'
Atlanta comes off a last-minute, statement win at the Eagles, which saw Cousins drive the Falcons 70 yards downfield in just a minute to secure the one-point victory. In Cousins' second game with Atlanta, he threw for 214 yards and two touchdowns.
The Chiefs, too, pulled off a nailbiter against the Bengals with a 51-yard field goal as time expired. It didn't come without controversy, as pass interference was called on a Cincinnati defender on fourth down in the final minute. Regardless, despite a less-than-perfect performance from Patrick Mahomes, who threw for just 151 yards and two interceptions, Kansas City proved why it's the two-time defending Super Bowl champ.
The Chiefs and Falcons have met just 10 times in NFL history. Kansas City leads with seven wins, including the last two in 2016 and 2020. But as Atlanta continues to rebuild the team, can it down the seemingly impenetrable Chiefs?
