The Ravens have been eagerly awaiting the start of the new season since their last game in January, when they witnessed the Chiefs celebrate an AFC title on their home turf. This time around, the two teams will meet again, with the Ravens traveling to Kansas City as the visitors.
Quarterback Lamar Jackson has mentioned that the loss to the Chiefs has left a “little chip on our shoulder.” However, he is not attaching too much significance to the season opener against the Chiefs. In a press conference, Jackson emphasized that while beating the Chiefs in Week One would be a great way to start off the season, it doesn’t matter much who they play against. His ultimate goal is to make it to the Super Bowl and he believes that beating Kansas City would just be another step towards achieving that goal.
It’s worth noting that both teams did not have a perfect start to last season, as they both opened with losses. Therefore, it is important for both teams to focus on their performance throughout the season rather than just winning or losing in Week One. Nonetheless, a win in Kansas City would give Ravens an early advantage in conference and increase their chances of securing a spot in Super Bowl.
