Atlanta Falcons' defense will test Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs' offense | FNIA | NFL on NBC

I feel like the worst time to have to face Mahomes is right after he had a pretty poor game. Especially in primetime.

[TwistedTorchTV]

Judon & Grady will have a good game this week. Both have 1.5 sacks in 2 games. Like Harrison said Judon is streaky, I can see 2 sacks Sunday night. Simmons has 6 INTs in his career against Mahomes. I look for him to come in the box and cover more this week with base playing deep 3.

[samwalters]

Everyone getting excited; because they wanna see chiefs lose. Lol. Keep dreaming!!!

[bradsexton]

I don't think it's a big deal we got multiple running backs fill in

[martinwalker]

People will focus on Kelce so much that Rice will finish the season 1500 yards and 10 TDs! So pick your poison 🤷🏾‍♂️

[Comeback.king.]

How many times do I gotta read that someone’s defense will test Patrick mahomes lmao

[zacbryant]

Does Tony Dungy ever pick the Chiefs to do well ever? SMH

[mr-alexknight]

If the Chiefs actually start Wanya Morris instead of Kingsley Suamataia the Atlanta pass rush will not as effective as ppl are saying.

[kaihfye]

No Pacheco is big. We will see if it’s no problem for the chiefs Sunday in Atlanta.

[Rudytube]

I think the Falcons should stop using Judon for coverage and just let him go full rush on almost every play

[wrecker]

The BIG problem with KC right now is them FORCING the RUNNING GAME ON Mahomes. It has him and the whole offense looking DISJOINTED & HE HATES IT, Just Runs to NOWHERE bringing up Unnecessary 3rd downs when the Pigskin could be in the Air troubling the scoreboard with higher frequency due to being AGGRESSIVE. There is ZERO EXCUSE where the opposing QB should ever ATTEMPT MORE PASSES than him unless its some blowout/time possession thing The PLAY CALLING and SCHEMES are NOT for this QB since its for your limited-in-talent Alex Smith/ Ryan Tannehill's of the world. Patrick Mahomes current TALENTS are BEING WASTED and its just mind-boggling that's why he said the OFFENSE HAD HIM MISERABLE ALL OF LAST SEASON. 21 QB's this past week Attempted more passes than the best player on the planet. That would be like Michael Jordan attempting 5 shots per game, Jordan wouldn't tolerate that and Mahomes shouldn't. Its very simple just have 4 plus multiple WR sets run all over that field and let Mahomes do his thing, Mahomes wants to throw the ball 50 plus times a game because that's HIS GAME/ TALENTS.

[kcrich]

It sucks losing Pacheco but Carson Steele is a beast. He'll pick up where Pacheco left

[jeradlarkey]

Travis Kelce is due for one of his 100 yarders.

[stephenfioirno]

Mahomes realizes that he did not play well last week against Bengals. I do expect him to improve this week. Have to get Kelce more involved and Ju Ju also. They have the weapons to take it to Falcons.

[toryskeete]

As a die hard Falcons fan,
CHIEFS 28, FALCONS 20😢
IT'S PATRICK MAHOMES
Future Goat!!!🐐

[samueldavis]

I don't think the moment will be too big for the Falcons look for Pitts and Judon and Simmons to have a good game.

[wndstte]

That celebrity lifestyle is getting to Kelce thanks to Taylor Swift

[justsaying]

The Chiefs may lose to somebody but it ain’t gonna be against the falcons.

[Anthony-yuyz]

I have some bad news for the falcons. Kareem Hunt is back with the Chiefs.

[coreybell]

Justin Simmons is y’all key? Justin Simmons that played for the Broncos? Justin Simmons that lost EVERY GAME TO MAHOMES except the one Mahomes had the flu! That Justin Simmons! Lmbo!!!! Please let him guide the Falcons defense against the Chiefs!
