Surprise! Boy cries when he learns he is going to his first NFL game
A young Kansas City Chiefs fan receives tickets to his first NFL game as an early gift from his parents before his seventh birthday.
Two teams that won on last-minute drives in Week 2 meet in a Sunday Night Football showdown in Week 3.
The Atlanta Falcons (1-1) host the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs, coming off a dramatic touchdown drive orchestrated by new Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins that gave Atlanta its first win of the season over the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football in Week 2. Cousins delivered his best performance in the no-huddle and running back Bijan Robinson looks poised for a big year.
The Falcons will also induct owner Arthur Blank and former quarterback Matt Ryan into the team’s Ring of Honor in connection with Sunday’s game. Levy Restaurants and the Falcons have purchased 100,000 Blank-themed hot dogs, bags of chips and souvenir cups for the game. The promotion includes two free hot dogs and two bags of chips per visit through the end of the third quarter. Fans can also get their souvenir cups refilled for free.
Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs (2-0), meanwhile, used their own late-game fireworks to beat Cincinnati, setting up a game-winning Harrison Butker field goal in the final seconds (and taking advantage of a fourth-down pass interference penalty to keep the drive alive). It’s still unclear whether it’s a good or bad sign that the Chiefs beat the Bengals despite hitting 1 of 8 balls on third down and committing three turnovers, including two Mahomes interceptions.
Their survival skills will continue to be tested, starting with this prime-time showcase after coach Andy Reid announced that running back Isaiah Pacheco will need surgery to repair a broken fibula and may not return until next season.
