FILE-Patrick Mahomes #15 of the Kansas City Chiefs runs into the end zone as he celebrates after passing to Mecole Hardman Jr. #12 of the Kansas City Chiefs to win in overtime during the NFL Super Bowl 58 football game between the San Francisco 49ers
The Kansas City Chiefs returned from their bye week and hit the road for a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers in a rematch of Super Bowl LVIII.
Kansas City and the Minnesota Vikings, who have a huge game against their division rival, the Detroit Lions, are still undefeated as we approach the midpoint of the season, and they still are among the elite teams in the league based on FOX Sports’ latest power rankings.
Week 7 has a ton of intriguing games this weekend and here’s a look at the NFL schedule and how to stream NFL games on FOX.
America’s Game of the Week
Kansas City ended San Francisco’s season last year in Super Bowl LVIII in a thrilling overtime contest that saw Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs hoist another Lombardi trophy.
These teams step on the field for the first time since they met in February and the 49ers are out to prove they can beat the Chiefs, who enter Sunday’s game undefeated at 5-0, while San Francisco looks to extend their winning streak after a pivotal win against the Seattle Seahawks last week.
The Chiefs are banged up after losing several key starters, including wide receiver Marquise "Hollywood" Brown, and running back Isaiah Pacheco. But the duo of Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce is still formidable for defenses and Mahomes also has another weapon at his disposal on the perimeter in rookie wideout Xavier Worthy, who has top-end speed and can create havoc against any secondary.
Niners quarterback Brock Purdy is having a solid season and has weapons of his own in receiver Deebo Samuel and All-Pro tight end George Kittle. San Francisco is favored in this game, and the winner of this contest may come down to who has the ball in the final possession.
