The Kansas City Chiefs narrowly overcame the Baltimore Ravens in a thrilling 27-20 season opener for the 2024 NFL season. A last-minute touchdown opportunity almost altered the game's outcome, but ultimately, the Chiefs capitalized on their offensive prowess.

Patrick Mahomes led the Chiefs' efficient passing attack, connecting well with Rashee Rice. In contrast, Lamar Jackson showcased his scrambling skills but the Ravens struggled to capitalize on aerial opportunities.

While both teams exhibited strong performances, the Chiefs' defense proved formidable, limiting key Ravens' receivers, with Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman largely contained.
