The Kansas City Chiefs escaped Atlanta with a 22-17 victory despite facing several concerns, including injuries and offensive struggles. Patrick Mahomes led the comeback with two touchdown drives in the third quarter, keeping the Chiefs undefeated.
The reigning Super Bowl champion leaves Week 3 of the NFL season with serious questions. How much longer can Kansas City stay undefeated despite attrition in its backfield? How could the Chiefs allow an up-and-down Atlanta team to hang around as a threat until the final minute? Will Travis Kelce be more involved in the offense soon? Yet the Chiefs left Atlanta on Sunday with a 22-17 win despite those concerns.
Mahomes led the Chiefs on a pair of 11-play scoring drives in the third quarter to complete the comeback. Kansas City is one of five undefeated teams remaining, joining fellow 3-0 teams Seattle, Minnesota and Pittsburgh and 2-0 Buffalo. The Bills face the Jaguars on Monday. Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 20 of his 29 passes for 230 yards with an interception and a touchdown thrown in the opening minutes of the first quarter.
