Falcons open as 4.5-point underdogs against the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football

Fresh off of a thrilling road victory in Philadelphia, the Atlanta Falcons (1-1) prepare to host the Kansas City Chiefs (2-0) on Sunday Night Football. Despite their wild comeback win against the Eagles, these are still the Chiefs, and as such Atlanta opened as 4.5-point home underdogs, per FanDuel Sportsbook.

The final drive was the story for the Falcons, with quarterback Kirk Cousins connecting with receivers downfield to move the chains in a race against the clock. Out of timeouts and facing a six-point deficit, Cousins laced in passes to tight end Kyle Pitts and wide receiver Darnell Mooney before finally finding wide receiver Drake London in the end zone for the score to tie it up.
