4 Kansas City Chiefs the Las Vegas Raiders should worry about in Week 11
Defensive linemen Chris Jones and Frank Clark
The last time the Raiders took on the Kansas City Chiefs, Derek Carr threw for over 300 yards and three touchdowns, while only being sacked once. The offensive line did a tremendous job protecting No. 4, and on Sunday night, and they will need to do the same, although they will be without Trent Brown, who played a key role in that Week 5 victory.
Chris Jones and Frank Clark are two dominating defensive linemen who can absolute wreck havoc on the defensive side of the ball, and the Raiders need to be tough up front if they want to complete the series sweep of KC. Jones and Clark have combined for 9.5 sacks and 26 quarterback hits this season, but the Raiders counter with elite talent up front along the offensive line, making this a key matchup to watch.

With Kolton Miller returning, that is huge for the Raiders offensive line, who have a tall task in Week 11 against the likes of Clark and Jones. Taco Charlton is out this week, and he is a solid edge rusher, and if Las Vegas can keep Carr clean on Sunday night, he should be able to attack deep, just as he did in Week 5.
