Final Score Predictions for Every Chiefs Primetime Game on the 2024 Schedule
Few NFL teams have a presence quite like the Kansas City Chiefs. With superstar names like Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and Chris Jones littered throughout the lineup, every Chiefs game feels like a big-time showdown. I suppose winning three Super Bowl titles in five seasons also helps.
As the league's reigning back-to-back champions, it's unsurprising that the Chiefs will be featured in five primetime games during the 2024 NFL campaign. These matchups range from a Week 1 meeting with Lamar Jackson's Baltimore Ravens to a Week 14 divisional showdown with the rival Los Angeles Chargers.
While it's fun to watch games unfold, it's never too early to try and predict the result of each game. With that in mind, here's a score prediction for all five of the Chiefs' 2024 primetime games.
Week 1 vs. Baltimore Ravens (TNF)
Chiefs fans won't have to wait long to see their team in primetime action. Mahomes & Co. will kickstart the 2024 campaign with a massive Thursday Night Football collision with the Ravens. Baltimore will be hungry for revenge after falling 17-10 to Kansas City in the 2023-24 AFC Championship Game.
While the Ravens are poised to look like Super Bowl threats again next season, they aren't the champions. The Chiefs have successfully handled the Ravens more often than not in the last decade, winning five of the last six matchups between these teams with the sole loss during that stretch coming by just one point. Meanwhile, KC outscored Baltimore by an average of 9.8 points in victory.
The Ravens will push and pose a challenge, but opening the season at Arrowhead Stadium is an uphill challenge for any visitor. The Kansas City atmosphere and Super Bowl-celebrating crowd will provide the Chiefs with an unediable edge as they edge out the Ravens yet again.
