Falcons vs. Chiefs score, results: Kansas City outlasts Atlanta in 'SNF' win

 

Falcons vs. Chiefs score


The Kansas City Chiefs continued their winning streak in Atlanta against the Falcons on "Sunday Night Football."

After narrowly escaping with a victory over the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 2, thanks to a crucial pass interference penalty that set up the game-winning field goal, the Chiefs faced another close call in Week 3. 

With the clock winding down in the fourth quarter, Kansas City's defense made a key stop, denying Bijan Robinson on a critical fourth-and-inches. This secured the Chiefs' 22-17 win, advancing them to a perfect 3-0 start for the season


Once again, a pass interference controversy stirred debate, as some believed Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts was interfered with by Chiefs safety Bryan Cook in the end zone during a previous Falcons drive. However, the referees chose not to make the call.


The Chiefs faced a resilient Falcons team that, after struggling in Week 1 against the Steelers, bounced back with a last-minute victory over the Eagles. Although Kirk Cousins wasn't at his best, he led the Falcons down the field when it mattered most, connecting with Drake London for the game-tying touchdown. Younghoe Koo’s extra point gave Atlanta a brief lead.
