I've got the exact same thing going on and I live in downtown Fayetteville ,I go outside this morning and all my young sunflower plants had the tops missing. The plants DID NOT have flowers yet! They were not tall enough - they are dwarf sunflowers in planters, and the tender tops - not flowers, just tender areas of new leaf growth - were chewed off.
The planters the sunflowers were grown in WERE NOT knocked over. The sunflower plants were about 12 -18 inches tall measuring from the top of the gravel mulch in the containers. I have a variety of flowers (impatiens, petunias, etc) with flowers currently blooming in the yard, and none of these flowers were even touched. From these pictures, what is the most likely culprit? Deer, rabbits, squirrels, or what?

YesThanks, but there were no actual flowers blooming yet. They just bit/chewed the tender new plant growth. That said, would deer still be the likely culprit?
