Patrick Mahomes threw a pair of touchdown passes and Kansas City's defense made a couple of late stands to keep the Chiefs unbeaten with a 22-17 victory over the Atlanta Falcons. The two-time reigning Super Bowl champion Chiefs have been far from perfect as Mahomes threw another interception but they have won three times by a combined 13 points.

The Chiefs have been far from perfect, that’s for sure — Mahomes points to himself more than anyone — but their record has remained unblemished by a combined 13 points. “Trust my keys, trust my eyes, trust the play call we had,” he said. “I already knew where I was going.”Cousins was 20 of 29 for 230 yards with a 13-yard touchdown pass to Drake London and a 50-yard completion to Kyle Pitts that set up Robinson’s 1-yard scoring run.

Cousins completed all five of his passes for 66 yards, including a 14-yard scoring toss to Drake London — who also caught the winning score against the Eagles. London wound up all alone in the end zone on a busted coverage by the Chiefs. But Atlanta’s offensive line took a pair of hits when right tackle Kaleb McGary and center Drew Dalman both went out with injuries. With a pair of backups joining their ranks, the guys up from struggled to keep the pressure off Cousins, who was sacked twice and hit 10 more times as he threw, spending much of the night picking himself off the turf at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

For the third game in a row, Travis Kelce was not much of a factor. The star tight end had four catches for 30 yards.Carson Steele, an undrafted rookie, led the way with 17 bruising carries for 72 yards. Samaje Perine chipped in with six carries for 25 yards, to go along with three catches for 15 yards.
