The Kansas City Chiefs are set to host the Baltimore Ravens in the 2024 NFL season opener on Thursday night.
Ahead of tonight’s action, Sean Payton’s daughter, Meghan, took to Twitter/X with a perfect tweet: “go ravens.”
Go Ravens, indeed.
Meghan’s father, of course, is the head coach of the Denver Broncos, who play in the AFC West with the Chiefs. After taking over the Broncos in 2023, Payton helped Denver snap a 16-game losing streak to Kansas City that dated back to 2015.
That 24-9 upset last fall didn’t prevent the Chiefs from winning an eighth-straight division title in 2023, and KC is the favorite to win the AFC West again in 2024. If the Broncos are going to catch the Chiefs in the division, they could use help from other clubs.

The Ravens also play in the same conference, but they’re obviously not a division threat. The lesser of two evils in this case is Baltimore.
Thursday night’s opener will be nationally televised on NBC and available to stream on fuboTV (try it free). Kickoff is set for 6:20 p.m. MT.
