KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Kansas City Chiefs managed to continue their stretch of dominance over a key AFC rival, winning 27-20 in a season-opening heartbreaker for the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night.
The game came down to tight end Isaiah Likely's toe being out of bounds on a would-be touchdown in the final seconds.
Led by quarterback Patrick Mahomes and a two-touchdown performance from rookie receiver Xavier Worthy, the Chiefs picked up where they left off in the Super Bowl and look to be legit contenders for the elusive three-peat.
Meanwhile, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson fell to 1-5 in his career against Mahomes.
