The Kansas City Chiefs will begin the defense of their latest Super Bowl trophy when they face the Detroit Lions on Thursday night in the opening game of the NFL season.
LIONS OFFENSE: OVERALL , RUSH , PASS , SCORING .CHIEFS DEFENSE: OVERALL , RUSH , PASS , SCORING .LIONS PLAYER TO WATCH: WR Amon-Ra St. Brown is one of three players in NFL history with at least 90 catches in each of his first two seasons and the only Detroit player with at least 900 yards receiving in each of them. St. Brown will be going against a young Kansas City pass defense that could struggle unless the defensive front generates some pass rush.
KEY MATCHUP: Lions DL Aidan Hutchinson and LB James Houston against Chiefs OTs Jawaan Taylor and Donovan Smith. Hutchinson and Houston were the first Detroit rookies to have at least eight sacks apiece last season. They’ll be going against two new, albeit veteran, offensive tackles that Kansas City brought in to replace Andrew Wylie and Orlando Brown Jr.
SERIES NOTES: The Chiefs have won two straight and six of their past eight against Detroit. The Lions have not beaten Kansas City since a 48-3 rout on Sept. 18, 2011, and their most recent win at Arrowhead Stadium was on Oct. 23, 1988.
