4 keys to victory for the Raiders vs. the Chiefs in Week 11

Limit the mistakes

The Las Vegas Raiders need to play clean football against the Chiefs in Week 11, because Mahomes and company are excellent at taking advantage of mistakes. While Carr has done a nice job protecting the ball this season in the air, throwing only two interceptions, he has had his issues with the fumbles.

Giving the Chiefs extra possessions, or giving them the ball back in plus territory is never a good recipe for success. Not only do the Raiders have to limit the turnovers, but they also have to avoid the big penalties, whether it be an interference call that extends the drive, or some kind of holding, whether offensively, or on the defensive side of the ball.

Overall, this has the makings of what should be an instant classic, as both teams are looking to assert dominance in the AFC West. The Raiders can really make a statement with another win against their division rival, but in order to do so, plenty of things have to fall into place Sunday night inside the Death Star.
