Las Vegas Raiders: 3 Kansas City Chiefs to worry about in Week 14

3. Patrick Mahomes

It seems we may have saved the best for last here. You can never write an article about Chiefs players to worry about and exclude the talented young gunslinger. Although he is not playing at his usual superstar standard this season, well it is still Pat Mahomes.

The quarterback had a rough start to the 2021 season, but has recovered as of late and had his best performance of the season against the Raiders in Las Vegas in November. His 400-yard and five touchdown showing was reminiscent of what not only Raiders fans are accustomed to seeing, but the whole league.

In a game where the Chiefs can push their divisional lead even further and a home game at that, Mahomes will be looking to get on the scoreboard early and often.

The Raiders always struggle against Mahomes, and if the Raiders can somehow and in some way just slow down the star quarterback a bit, they may have a chance at victory. Watch for Mahomes to be the catalyst of either a Chiefs victory or hopefully a surprising Raider one.
