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

Patrick Mahomes

One look at the national media and you can see plenty of stories about how Patrick Mahomes is broken this season, and the Chiefs offense is just not as good as it once was. All that is fine and good, but the truth is, Mahomes has the talent to hurt the Raiders in a big way on Sunday night, so nobody should be taking him lightly.

Las Vegas needs to get into his face early on, forcing him to make mistakes, and to try and make crazy plays with his arm and his legs. Mahomes has been a magician under center for the Chiefs since taking over for Alex Smith as the starting quarterback, but something seems off this season, leading the Chiefs to a 5-4 record early on.

This is a game that could be a real statement for the Silver and Black, as they look to get back on the winning track. Some say Mahomes could be broken, but we have seen him play out of his mind on so many occasions, so not only must he be stopped, but the Raiders need to make sure he does not have any magic on Sunday night.
