and Kansas City Chiefs (-6.5) will kick off the NFL football season on Thursday and the opening betting line for their contest has seen only minimal movement as the two teams prepare for this matchup.

And per usual, they open the game as the heavy favorites—when the schedule was released in May, the Chiefs were a full touchdown favorite over the Lions.
