The Kansas City Chiefs made a winning start to their quest to win three straight Super Bowls as they beat the Baltimore Ravens in dramatic fashion in the NFL's opener.
Patrick Mahomes threw for 291 yards and a touchdown as the Kansas City defense kept Lamar Jackson and the Ravens out of the end zone on three heart-stopping plays in the final seconds to guide the the Chiefs to a 27-20 victory over Baltimore in Thursday's season opener. The game ended with a video review after Jackson appeared to connect with Isaiah Likely in the back of the end zone with no time remaining for a touchdown.
The Chiefs, trying to avoid losing their opener in back-to-back years, needed just two minutes to produce an answer. Mahomes twice connected with Rashee Rice, before Worthy showed why the Chiefs made him their first-round pick with a 21-yard touchdown run. Jackson was then strip-sacked by Chris Jones deep in his own territory, leading to a field goal for Kansas City.
