The Kansas City Chiefs narrowly defeated the Baltimore Ravens in the NFL season opener with a final score of 27-20. The game concluded in dramatic fashion as Ravens' tight end Isaiah Likely's right foot was ruled out of bounds on a potential game-tying touchdown as time expired. The Ravens' loss was determined by the smallest of margins, with multiple sources describing the defeat as being by a 'toe' or 'inches'. The Ravens came inches shy of setting up a two-point conversion to decide the game's outcome. This victory marks the Chiefs' first win of the season.
