The Las Vegas Raiders can knock off their longstanding AFC West rival, the Kansas City Chiefs. Here are our bold predictions for Monday night’s game.

The Las Vegas Raiders, for better or for worse, have a knack for playing up to their competition. That means when the stakes are high and when many outsiders consider them to be outmatched, the Silver and Black tend to play with a chip on their shoulder and exceed expectations.

We’ve seen this happen against their AFC West rival Kansas City Chiefs on many occasions, and the same script can play out on Monday Night Football.

A win at the expense of the Chiefs would be a huge jolt to steer the Raiders’ season back on track while keeping the race tight in the AFC West standings. It will take a huge cumulative performance from the Silver and Black, but we’ve seen them step up to the occasion and finish with extraordinary feats.

Ahead of a big Monday Night Football showdown, here our are bold predictions for the Raiders vs Chiefs in 2022 Week 5.
