It's game time. Today's Chiefs vs. Ravens live stream has all the potential in the world to feature the kind of all-star duel we always hope to catch, but don't really always watch. As Patrick Mahomes leads the defending Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs against Lamar Jackson and his Baltimore Ravens, two of the best QBs, the last league MVP from the previous season, are going head to head.

Of course, there's a little bigger intrigue here. Lamar won the MVP trophy last year and the Chiefs won the Super Bowl that year. And the Chiefs will have to set their own (fast) pace early on to win this NFL live stream.

This AFC matchup, which many expected to be a major playoff matchup last year, will test the prevailing wisdom that the Ravens' defense has no luck against Mahomes' offense. Some believe that Mahomes will perform best against Baltimore's aggressive defense, but will his efficient offense really win out?

Even though Kansas City has yet to showcase a truly great offense, many are picking them to win this matchup. But it shouldn't be a close game.

The Chiefs-Ravens game is very likely to be a slugfest thanks to two strong offenses and should be one of the more interesting games of the week. Here's everything you need to know to watch the game live.

Football fans, if for some reason you have to leave your "bubble" or suffer the dreaded local blackout, you won't be able to watch the Chiefs vs. Ravens live stream, but you don't have to miss the game. Using a virtual private network, or VPN, you can pretend you are surfing the web from your hometown (or anywhere else not hit by a blackout) and access the same streaming services you have already paid for.

Not sure which VPN is right for you? After testing a variety of services, the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. It offers great speed and excellent customer service. However, there are other VPN options out there. Here are our top picks.
