The first Amazon Prime Video "Thursday Night Football" game of the year is here.
After NBC took on the opening-night matchup between the Bills and Rams last week, the remainder of 'Thursday Night Football' games will be streamed on Amazon Prime as part of a new partnership with the NFL beginning this season.
The Chiefs will host the Chargers at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, gearing up for a showdown between two 1-0 teams in the loaded AFC West.
The Chiefs are coming off of a commanding win over the Cardinals, where star quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw for 360 yards and five touchdowns as Kansas City hung 44 points on the road in its season opener.

The Chargers were a little more battle-tested in their opener, grinding out a 24-19 win over the division-rival Raiders. Rising star quarterback Justin Herbert threw for 279 yards and three touchdowns, but he could be down his No. 1 target in this Week 2 matchup.
Wide receiver Keenan Allen went down with a hamstring injury in Los Angeles' first game against Las Vegas and with a short week, it doesn't seem likely that he will be available for Thursday's contest.
Will the Chargers be able to keep their offense rolling without Allen? Or will the Chiefs ride the momentum of a dominant win and defend home turf?
