Patrick Mahomes doesn't get many chances at indoor games, but he's shined in those spots in the past and is primed to do so again vs. a suspect Falcons stop unit.
Patrick Mahomes doesn't get many chances at indoor games, but he's shined in those spots in the past and is primed to do so again vs. a suspect Falcons stop unit.The Kansas City Chiefs are fresh off dispatching the Bengals in Week 2 and travel to Atlanta as 3-point favorites to take on Kirk Cousins and the Falcons, who are also coming off a big comeback win in Week 2.
The K.C. run game is in a tough spot with Carson Steele likely being the early-down back. The backfield's strength in Week 3 is in the passing game with getting the passing-down role. I love all of Perine's receiving Overs, but Mahomes' cast of weapons is as expansive as it has ever been. The Chiefs will try to take him out of this tilt, but his role in both the rushing and passing game make it almost impossible. Backup RB Tyler Allgeier is also nursing a hip injury.
The Chiefs' last loss came back on Christmas Day vs. the Raiders. Since then, they are 8-0 SU and 7-1 ATS with the only non-cover coming last week vs. the Bengals as a 6.5-point home favorite. The Falcons are 2-6 ATS across their last eight home games dating back to last season.
