The Las Vegas Raiders will host division rival Kansas City in Week 10, and here are three Chiefs that must be stopped in the matchup.

The Las Vegas Raiders will play host to the Kansas City Chiefs in a Sunday Night Football matchup inside Allegiant Stadium. The Chiefs are in the middle of a tough season, as they have not looked like an elite team this year, something the Raiders need to capitalize on if they want to be a legitimate contender in the AFC West.

Here, we look at three Chiefs that need to be stopped in this crucial AFC West battle Sunday night.

Kansas City at Las Vegas Raiders: 3 Chiefs that must be stopped in Week 10

Chris Jones

The Chiefs have been atrocious on the defensive side of the ball this season, as they have struggled to get stops time and time again. Last weekend, the Chiefs took on the Green Bay Packers without Aaron Rodgers, and they finally played a good game, holding the Jordan Love-led squad to only seven points.

Chris Jones is a guy that the Chiefs love to use on passing downs, so he is someone who must be keyed on Sunday night. Derek Carr needs time to operate his offense, and the Raiders are weaker inside than they are on the outside of the offensive line, which means Jones could end up being a problem.
