In Week 3’s edition of “Sunday Night Football,” the 0-2 Kansas City Chiefs are in East Rutherford, New Jersey, hoping to get their season back on track against another 0-2 team: the New York Giants. Both of Kansas City’s losses have been to teams that are now 3-0 after Sunday afternoon’s action, while New York has lost to teams that are 2-1 and 1-2 after their Week 3 games. The Chiefs come into this game as 5.5-point road favorites against a team they have never beaten on the road — and might be just as desperate for a victory.
The Chiefs won the coin toss and deferred. Harrison Butker sent the ball to Giants running back Devin Singletary, who returned the kick to the New York 31-yard line to begin the drive. The Giants began with a run heavy approach. Running back Tyrone Trace was involved on New York’s first five plays, gaining 28 scrimmage yards. Rookie running back Cam Skattebo mixed in with an 11-yard gain, before being stopped for a yard. The Giants would stall at the Kansas City 28-yard line. With kicker Graham Gano reportedly going back to the locker room after injuring his groin in warmups, New York elected to go for a fourth-and-3. Linebacker Nick Bolton batted down Russell Wilson’s intended pass to Tracy, and the Chiefs took over at their own 28.
