Rashee Rice is a bona fide No. 1 dude at this point. There's not a route he can't run and he's absolutely lethal after the catch. Dynamite find for Patrick Mahomes and the #Chiefs. pic.x.com/popwo5wucr

Rashee Rice gained 75 of his 110 yards after the catch across 12 receptions on 14 targets. Rice also forced 5 missed tackles. Rice currently leads all players in yards after catch this season (200), and leads all wide receivers in missed tackles forced (9). Powered by @awscloud pic.x.com/sbzz3f3ngz

In all seriousness, Nick Bolton is a monster in the big moments. Chiefs are 3-0, and that's a really nice win on the road.
@AlbertBreer: And on Arthur Blank Night, no less.

The Kansas City Chiefs are set to face the Atlanta Falcons in a crucial Week 3 matchup on Sunday Night Football with a chance to earn their third win of the regular season.
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid made the difficult decision to bench rookie left tackle Kingsley Suamataia in favor of Wanya Morris for the highly-anticipated game after he struggled against the Cincinnati Bengals last week.
Though Suamataia is expected to get a chance to regain his starting spot, Reid’s decision to play Morris instead of Kansas City’s 2024 second-round pick left some fans reeling
The Kansas City Chiefs will look to continue their hot start to the 2024 regular season as they head to Georgia to take on the Atlanta Falcons this Sunday.
The Chiefs’ offense will be without the help of wide receiver Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown and running back Isiah Pacheco after both were placed on the team’s injured reserve list.
Still, Xavier Worthy and Rashee Rice are expected to build on their outstanding performances this season, and Kansas City’s offense should have no problem getting in rhythm against Atlanta’s defense
Death, taxes, and Justin Simmons intercepting Patrick Mahomes.
This is his SIXTH career interception off Mahomes.
@MySportsUpdate: What an opening drive by Kirk Cousins and the #Falcons, capped out by this WIDE OPEN touchdown to Drake London.
Cousins: 5/5, 66 yards, 1 TD

So hugging Kyle Pitts wasn't PI but that last one was?
@AlbertBreer: The Chiefs have mirrored the old Patriots in a lot of ways, and I guess getting the Michael Jordan treatment from the refs is another one.
some QBs bring their own style of offense. Kirk brings his own style of game. The Falcons keep playing some Kirk Cousins-ass games
49ers' TE2s... Charlie Woerner (2023): 3 catches, 32 yards Eric Saubert (2+ 2024 games): 3 catches, 30 yards
RT: Drew Dalman (ankle) and Kaleb McGary (knee) have been downgraded to OUT. Falcons to rely on depth at offensive line with Storm Norton at tackle and Ryan Neuzil at center.
