The Kansas City Chiefs and the Las Vegas raiders faced off on Monday night football and what a show it was. With these two teams having played well against each other for the last half decade, we all knew this was going to be a shoot out.
With the Chiefs coming off flat in the first half they really found their groove in the late second quarter and trail the Raiders 10-20 going into halftime, the Raiders in the first half did what they needed to do at the line of scrimmage and get pressure on Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes on every other snap. The Raiders did an excellent job forcing Kansas City in 3rd in long situations, including back to back three and outs and short drives.
The Chiefs completely turned around their second half scoring 14 unanswered points in the third quarter to take a 24 to 20 lead to start the fourth, with both teams not scoring a touchdown in the fourth. This game came down to field position and field goals, With Patrick Mahomes doing spectacular things once again, Mahomes threw four touchdowns and also rushed for 28 yards. The concerning thing is the Chiefs defense gave up over 150 yards to raiders running back Josh Jacobs.
As a Raiders fan, you have to feel awful. As every game you watch the season has come down to the final possession, and all have been one score losses as the Raiders drop to 1-4 their playoff chances are looking slimmer and slimmer after every week. Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams was visually frustrated after the loss and pushed a cameraman, Davante was fined $100,000 and apologized after the game, with tempers getting high and losses piling up this raiders team is potentially one of the most underachieving teams thus far.
