Chiefs Aim for Third Straight Win Against Dolphins in Week 3 Showdown
Patrick Mahomes' Kansas City Chiefs visit Jeff Hafley's Miami Dolphins in a Week 3 matchup with playoff implications.
The Kansas City Chiefs are set to face the Miami Dolphins on September 27, with kickoff scheduled for 1 p.m. ET. The game will be held at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida, and broadcast on CBS.
Kansas City enters Week 3 of the 2026 NFL season with a 2-0 record, aiming to extend their winning streak. The Chiefs secured victories in their opening games against the Broncos and Colts. Oddsmakers have positioned Kansas City as favorites, with an advantage of 10.5 to 11.5 points.
The Dolphins, meanwhile, are seeking their first win of the season after suffering losses to the Raiders and 49ers in the first two weeks. Head coach Jeff Hafley expressed the team's determination, stating, "We’ve got a team that is young and is giving it everything they have." He urged fans to support the team during their home opener.
This matchup follows a previous encounter between the two teams on January 13, 2024, where the Chiefs defeated the Dolphins 26-7 in Kansas City amid frigid temperatures. The current game is expected to be played in warmer conditions.
