The Las Vegas Raiders travel to Kansas City to take on the Chiefs in Week 5. Here is how you can catch all of the action on Sunday.
In their first AFC West matchup of the 2020 NFL season, the Las Vegas Raiders will travel to Kansas City to take on the undefeated Chiefs. After winning the Super Bowl last season, the Chiefs have showed no signs of slowing down, and will get a banged-up Raiders team inside Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday.
Las Vegas got some good news this week in terms of the injury report, as WR1 Henry Ruggs III returned to practice in full, and is expected to play. His return opens up the Raiders offense in so many ways, but most importantly, gives the Chiefs a deep threat to worry about, which should give Josh Jacobs the lanes he needs to operate.
Quarterback Derek Carr has yet to throw an interception in 2020, but he is fumbling at an alarming rate, and will need to protect the ball better against a tough Chiefs pass rush. Kansas City has the weapons on offense that everybody knows about in Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and Tyreek Hill, but their defense has been impressive this season as well.
Here is how you can watch all of the action Sunday:
Who: Las Vegas Raiders at Kansas City Chiefs
When: Sunday, October 11, 2020
Time: 10:00 AM PST/1:00 PM EST
Where: Arrowhead Stadium, Kansas City, MO
Television Station: CBS, NFL Sunday Ticket
Live Stream: FuboTV, NFL Sunday Ticket
The defense has struggled mightily this season, allowing 30 or more points in three of the first four games, and will be playing the best offense they will have faced on Sunday. Cory Littleton was brought in to be a difference maker, especially in coverage, so they will need a big game out of him in what has been an underwhelming start to his Raiders career.
The Raiders are going to need to be perfect to beat the Chiefs on Sunday, but they do have the talent on both sides of the ball to make this a game. Las Vegas has been blown out by Kansas City by a score of 103-22 in their last three meetings, and 75-12 at Arrowhead, so a close game could be a step in the right direction.
