Falcons vs. Chiefs live updates: How to watch, predictions for 'Sunday Night Football'

The Kansas City Chiefs will try and stay hot in Hotlanta vs. the Atlanta Falcons on "Sunday Night Football."
Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs escaped Arrowhead Stadium in Week 2 with a win over AFC rival Cincinnati. Mired in controversy, the Bengals committed a pass interference penalty to put the Chiefs in position to later boot the game-winning field goal through the uprights.
The Chiefs face a tough opponent in the Falcons. After the Falcons were stifled in Week 1 by the Steelers, they bounced back with a last-minute win over the Eagles. Kirk Cousins didn't look quite himself in the matchup, but he drove the Falcons down the field when they needed it most. He connected with Drake London for the tying score, and Younghoe Koo knocked through the extra point to take the lead.
Coincidentally, Mahomes hasn't quite looked like himself just yet, either. With a pair of interceptions in the Chiefs' matchup vs. the Bengals, the two-time MVP looked human. The Falcons will hope that is the version of Mahomes their upstart defense faces come Sunday night.
USA TODAY Sports will provide live updates, highlights and more from the Week 3 "Sunday Night Football" matchup between the Chiefs and Falcons.
