It's go time. And what better way to kick off the 2024 NFL season than with a rematch of the AFC Championship Game last January between the Chiefs and Ravens. 

After suffering a 17-10 defeat to the eventual two-time defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs, the Ravens will try and get their revenge on the road. 

Baltimore was dominant last season on the road, going 7-1, while Kansas City will look to win the AFC West for the ninth consecutive season. 

Both teams were busy in the offseason. The Ravens added star running back Derrick Henry to their backfield, giving last season's MVP Lamar Jackson another playmaker. 

While the Chiefs lost cornerback L'Jarius Sneed, they re-signed Chris Jones to once again have one of the best defenses in the league. The team also drafted speedy rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy out of Texas to give two-time MVP Patrick Mahomes another weapon.

Will the Chiefs begin their quest for a three-peat with a win? Or will the Ravens begin their 2024 journey on a high note?
