In a highly anticipated matchup, the defending Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs are gearing up to take on the Atlanta Falcons on the road for their first away game of the season. However, the Chiefs will be facing this challenge without one of their key players, as running back Isiah Pacheco is expected to miss extended time due to a fractured fibula.
Despite this setback, the Atlanta Falcons are riding high on momentum after a thrilling late 4th quarter comeback against the Philadelphia Eagles last Sunday night. The Falcons are looking to capitalize on their recent success and secure another victory at home.
The history between these two teams dates back to 1972, with a total of 10 meetings on record. The Chiefs have emerged victorious in seven of those matchups, with the last Falcons win over the Chiefs dating back to 2012. This sets the stage for an intense battle on the gridiron as both teams aim to secure a crucial win early in the season.
