The 2024 NFL season begins in Kansas City, where the Chiefs meet the Baltimore Ravens. This is the replay of last year’s AFC Championship Game, in which KC beat Lamar and the boys. Besides this one, we have more previews and NFL picks here.
Before Betting on Ravens vs. Chiefs NFL Week 1
Baltimore added Derrick Henry this summer, and that’s undoubtedly the biggest hit the Ravens’ front office managed to pull out. King Henry is still one of the elite rushers in the NFL, but there is a catch here why he might not be as effective as everyone believes. The offensive line lost a few names, and this matchup will be a huge test.
The defense is good (even though some big names like Jadeveon Clowney and Patrick Queen left) because the Ravens always find some talent to step up. The team had 1-2 in the preseason, but that’s nothing to worry about, because the preseason and the regular season are entirely different things.
Chiefs, for example, are 0-3 this preseason but are still the top favorites to win another Super Bowl. And as long as they have Mahomes and Kelce, no matter the others, it’s going to be like that.
The former Ravens WR, Marqise Brown, landed at Arrowhead, and he will have a significant motive to show himself in the best possible way on Thursday night. He will be a very important target for Mahomes, who loves having such players around him.
Ravens vs. Chiefs Head to Head
The latest meeting between these teams was in the AFC Championship Game, in which KC won 17-10, thanks to a fantastic defense that stepped up and froze the Ravens’ offense.
Ravens vs. Chiefs NFL Week 1 Offshore Betting Odds
| Team | Moneyline | Spread | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ravens | +125 | +3 | 46.5 |
| Chiefs | -145 | -3 | 46.5 |
The Chiefs had fewer roster changes than the Ravens. Even though the guests have Henry now, we still believe that the Chiefs have a more versatile unit on both sides of the ball, and that their defense can restrain Baltimore’s heavy-run offense.
