Mahomes completed 26 of 39 passes for 217 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 22-17 win over the Falcons. He added six rushing attempts for 17 yards.
Mahomes was picked off in the end zone by familiar nemesis Justin Simmons in the first quarter, marking Simmons' sixth interception against Mahomes. The star quarterback bounced back with a 13-yard touchdown pass to Rashee Rice on the next drive and added another 13-yard touchdown pass to JuJu Smith-Schuster in the third quarter. Mahomes posted another underwhelming stat line after throwing for a meager 151 yards in the previous game, but he has led the Chiefs to a 3-0 record despite his disappointing start from a statistical standpoint. He'll bring a 5:4 TD:INT into a Week 4 road game against a Chargers team that could be without starting quarterback Justin Herbert (ankle).
