The defending Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs travel to Atlanta for their first road game of the season. This road trip comes with some bad news, as RB Isiah Pacheco is expected to miss extended time due to a fractured fibula.
The Atlanta Falcons look to carry the momentum into this weekend after their surprise late 4th quarter comeback Sunday night against the Philadelphia Eagles.
The two teams have met 10 times since 1972, and the Chiefs have won seven of those meetings. The last Falcons win over the Chiefs was in 2012.

Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) thinks the play here is Chiefs -3 or pass…
“There is no way I am upgrading the Falcons because they stole the game on a last-minute drive against the Eagles. From where I am standing, the Eagles blew that game more than the Falcons won it. The game from the Eagles was mismanaged from the opening stanza.
The Chiefs are in their first road game and have injury issues. I don’t think they are overly motivated, so I’m off this match.”
