The Baltimore Ravens, Lamar Jackson, and Nick Boyle, in pursuit of the Chiefs, are knocking on the defending champions' door.

The Ravens were down big in the opening half as the Kansas City Chiefs took an early 27-10 lead approaching halftime. Lamar Jackson's offense hasn't been clicking almost the entire evening until he finally broke down the Chiefs defensive line with a TD to bring the Ravens within 7 with a full quarter left in the game.

The reigning MVP connected with TE Nick Boyle for a 5-yard TD as they look to build on their momentum in the second half.

It's been all Patrick Mahomes so far on Monday night as he seems to get everything he wants so far. The reigning Super Bowl MVP has had three TD passes so far and even scored a rushing TD himself to open up the much-awaited match-up between these AFC powerhouses.

With Jackson finally converting his first TD of the night, look for him and the rest of the Ravens to continue to put pressure on the Chiefs and further chip into their lead.
