2. Tyreek Hill
As mentioned, the key to the Chiefs offense is the deep threat. They beat teams with their vertical ability as their wide receivers group is incredible at beating teams over the top and quarterback Patrick Mahomes has a cannon for an arm and has the ability to launch it deep over the top of the defense.
A pivotal cog in that deep attack is arguably the most lethal wide receiver in the league, Tyreek Hill. Regardless of his off-field issues and perceived personality (which should have gotten him suspended) Hill is a terrific player. Few defensive players in the entire league have found success trying to keep up with Hill while he sprints up the field.
The Raiders defense will have their hands full with Hill and he will be a new element to this contest as he was injured in Week 2 when these teams first met this season. It will be interesting to see how Daryl Worley, Trayvon Mullen, and Erik Harris take care of Hill as we all know Curtis Riley won’t.
Hill is a huge x-factor in the game and all eyes, especially from the defense, need to be on him come Sunday.
