Just over a week ago, the Falcons couldn’t come up with the big play at the end of the game and fell to the Chiefs by five.
On Sunday, the Saints lost in Atlanta 26-24 on Younghoe Koo’s 58-yard field goal with two seconds remaining. A week earlier they fell to the Philadelphia Eagles by a field goal after winning their first two games by an average of 31 points.
Kansas City and New Orleans complete the early season round-robin with their first regular-season meeting since 2020. The Chiefs are the only 4-0 team in the AFC. The Saints have dropped two straight to fall to 2-2.
