Las Vegas Raiders: 3 Kansas City Chiefs to worry about in Week 14
2. Chris Jones
The Kansas City Chiefs boast one of the top offenses in all of football, but the same cannot be said for their defense. The Kansas City defense is allowing nearly 370 yards per game, and although it has looked rather solid as of late, it is a bunch that has disappointed on way more than one occasion this season.
The best of the bunch is defensive tackle, Chris Jones. The All-Pro performer is always a threat to get to the opposing quarterback and is one of the best pass-rushing defensive tackles in all of football. The evidence, in this case, lies in the numbers of course, as Jones is leading the Chiefs in sacks with 6.5.
The big-time defensive tackle is always a threat in every contest, and although he was banged up and did not get to quarterback Derek Carr once in the Chiefs’ last victory in Las Vegas, he showed his athleticism by deflecting two passes. This matchup will be much more difficult this time around as he is fully healthy.
The offensive line will have its hands full in this clash as they try to stop the talented tackle from getting to not only quarterback Derek Carr but running back Josh Jacobs.
