Raiders: 5 biggest games in the second half of 2021
Week 16: Kansas City Chiefs
This season is a weird one between the Raiders and the Chiefs because there are not many weeks separating their games this season. Last season, the Chiefs and Raiders’ first game was in Week 5, and in Kansas City, this season, both games lie in the second half of the season.
That means that Derek Carr and the Raiders will likely be taking on the Chiefs in cold weather, something that many pundits claim that Derek Carr cannot play in. If the Raiders want to be AFC West champions this season, these are the games that they can prove they can win.
Depending on if the Raiders can take care of business in the weeks before this week, this and the next game I will talk about will be two of the more important games in more than a decade for the Raiders.
