How to watch Kansas City Chiefs-LA Chargers opening game: Time, TV, betting odds
As a team that’s won three Super Bowls in the past six years, played in seven straight AFC Championship Games and won nine straight AFC West division titles, the Chiefs know how to close seasons.
They’re also good at opening them.
In Andy Reid’s first 12 years in Kansas City, the Chiefs are 10-2 on what the NFL calls Kickoff Weekend. They’ll look to improve that mark on Friday, Sept. 5, against the Los Angeles Chargers in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Both teams are away from home, but it’s the Chargers’ home game. Also a good trend for the Chiefs in openers: They’re 6-0 away from Arrowhead under Reid.
