Las Vegas Raiders at Kansas City Chiefs Week 5: Game preview and prediction
By Brad Weiss
The Las Vegas Raiders face a tall task on Sunday, as they travel to Kansas City to take on Patrick Mahomes and the undefeated Chiefs.
The 2-2 Las Vegas Raiders hit the road in Week 5 to open up their 2020 AFC West slate, heading to Kansas City to take on the undefeated Chiefs. The Chiefs are fresh off a solid victory against the New England Patriots, as their defense stepped up big time, and they got timely play from quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
Coming off their Super Bowl win, the Chiefs are showing no signs of slowing down, but will get a Raiders team that is getting healthier heading into the matchup. Henry Ruggs III and Trent Brown both practiced this week, and are expected to playing, giving a huge boost to an offense that needs to cut down on the mistakes.
Las Vegas shocked the football world by getting out to a 2-0 start, but that has been erased by their two straight losses. Still, heading into the bye week at 3-2 with how hard this early season schedule was would be considered a win, but they have a tall mountain to climb in Mahomes and the Chiefs Sunday.
Here is our game preview and prediction for the AFC West Week 5 clash.
