Anytime Touchdown Scorer Predictions Chiefs vs. Falcons Week 3: Picks & Odds for SNF

Boost your Kansas City Chiefs vs. Atlanta Falcons prediction with the help of these anytime touchdown scorer predictions for Sunday Night Football.

The 2-0 Chiefs visit the 1-1 Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium for an 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff on NBC. The visitors are 3- to 3.5-point favorites across our best NFL betting sites while remaining atop the latest Super Bowl odds.

Atlanta improved its Super Bowl outlook ever so slightly with Monday night's upset win over the Philadelphia Eagles. QB Kirk Cousins and Co. will look to further prove themselves with a second straight primetime game.

My anytime touchdown predictions slipped to minus-3.35 units for the season with an 0-for-2 showing Thursday. We'll make back some of that money tonight as we continue our NFL Week 3 predictions.

The Falcons' defense has been strong against opposing running backs. Through two games, they've allowed a league-high 142 rushing yards to quarterbacks. Eagles QB Jalen Hurts accounted for 85 of those yards and the score on Monday.

Phil Wood's Patrick Mahomes SNF player prop bets are expecting a big day through the air for the reigning Super Bowl MVP, but I also see a path to him having success on the ground.

The Chiefs will be without running back Isiah Pacheco for their first full game. Undrafted rookie Carson Steele leads a lackluster depth chart that includes Samaje Perine and Keaontay Ingram.

With that lack of experience behind him, I'm expecting Mahomes to call his own number in scoring position. He carried the ball four times for 29 yards last week and had a career-high 389 rushing yards last season.

Falcons anytime touchdown scorer prediction: Kyle Pitts, WR ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I highlighted Pitts as part of our touchdown parlay for Week 3, but I'm doubling down at higher odds for our Chiefs vs. Falcons SNF prop bets.

SBR's NFL player prop odds tool shows BetMGM has the best price for Pitts to score his second touchdown of the season. The +230 odds would return a $23 profit on a winning $10 wager. That same bet placed via Caesars would net just an $18 profit at +180 odds.

The Kansas City defense has a clear weakness against opposing tight ends. Isaiah Likely and Mike Gesicki (among others) have carved them up to a league-high 276 yards on an 83.3% catch rate.

Pitts has caught six of his seven targets through two games and has Atlanta's lone red-zone touchdown catch on the season.
