TIME CHANGE: Chiefs vs. Ravens Game Rescheduled Watch — Furious Storm Impact & Game Information

Jacksonville, FL — Week 5 sets the stage for another heavyweight AFC clash as the Kansas City Chiefs travel south to face the Jacksonville Jaguars at EverBank Stadium. On paper, it’s Patrick Mahomes against Trevor Lawrence with playoff implications — but Mother Nature may call an audible: Florida is bracing for Tropical Storm Isaias.

As of now, kickoff is slated for Sunday, October 5, 2025, at 1:00 PM EDT. League officials, Jaguars stadium ops, and local meteorologists are tracking the storm’s path closely, with forecasts calling for torrential rain and 30–40 mph winds (gusts stronger along the coast) across northeast Florida. Player, staff, and fan safety remain the priority; the NFL has confirmed that schedule adjustments — including a shifted kickoff or alternate date — are possible depending on Isaias’ trajectory.

Storylines to Watch

Mahomes vs. Lawrence, Round Three:
Two AFC powerhouses with franchise QBs built for big stages. If conditions get sloppy, composure and decision-making under pressure could swing the game.

Kelce in the swamp:
If wind limits Kansas City’s vertical attack, Travis Kelce becomes even more critical underneath. Expect Jaguars linebackers led by Foyesade Oluokun to blanket the middle.

Jaguars’ ground-and-pound:
Jacksonville’s identity at home has been physical. Travis Etienne Jr. and rookie back rotations could dictate tempo and clock control in bad weather.

Pacheco’s punch:
Kansas City’s Isiah Pacheco brings a straight-line style that thrives on slick turf. Ball security will be the hidden stat that decides field position.

Weather Factor

If Isaias brings the expected downpour:

• Turnovers & short fields will loom large with slippery footballs.

Fan Experience & Contingency Plans

• Stadium Ops: Gate openings and parking could be delayed; updates will flow through Jaguars, Chiefs, and NFL apps.

Broadcast & Streaming

The game is set for CBS with Paramount+ streaming in local and national markets. Jaguars and Chiefs radio networks will deliver full coverage as usual.

Odds & Series Notes

• Spread: Chiefs -3.5 (defending champs; weather may tighten line).

Game Schedule (Weather-Dependent)

• Matchup: Kansas City Chiefs at Jacksonville Jaguars

For now, the clash is on schedule — but with Isaias moving along the Florida coast, this showdown could be decided as much by the elements as by the league’s brightest young quarterbacks. Fans are urged to monitor weather alerts, travel with caution, and check official channels for weekend updates.
