notthatbluestuff Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 When (if) the 2020 season begins, and assuming the NFL returns to the tradition of the defending champs opening the season at home, which of the Chiefs’ 2020 home opponents do you think would make for the best opening game?

kingseanjohn Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I'd say the Texans. But I also think that'd be a good game to save for late season for potential playoff implications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirill Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Las Vegas Raiders. Show off the new look Raiders to the world and watch as the Chiefs give them the bully beatdown. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverNBlackFan Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Not really a lot of great options. Watson/Mahomes would be a big draw, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter2_1 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Chargers, for me. One of the few teams that have beaten Mahomes and co, DIV rival and they are widely regarding as having improved or WILL improve by the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August4th Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 its a toss up between texans(watson vs pat), Raiders(div rival + 1st game as LV team) and Chargers(Div rival/new look and will be coming off hard knocks) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeT14 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Texans. I think they save Raiders for a home primetime for their first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyRam Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 A new look New England against the reigning Super Bowl Champions. I'll take that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wackywabbit Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 The Chiefs schedule is weirdly loaded towards road games (on paper). The Texans seem like the "best" opponent, but I don't expect Watson to be enough to keep it competitive. The Falcons offense may the best on that list of opponents. The passing game should hold up as long as Matt Ryan doesn't fall off a cliff. Hayden Hurst will be a stat monster between Julio and Calvin, and Todd Gurley should at least still be a good dump off receiver. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notthatbluestuff Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 I also think the Falcons sound like an exciting option. First time opponent for Mahomes. Ryan, Julio, Ridley, Gurley. I like it. It’s not necessarily the biggest ratings draw, but assuming the season starts on time, people will be absolutely starved for sports and the NFL’s return would be huge no matter what.
