Chiefs vs. Raiders game recap: Everything we know

Andy Reid has been the most proven commodity in the NFL off a bye week, and this week was no exception to that legacy. His ability to coach the team to victory, down to the very last play, made all the difference with a listless defensive performance keeping the game close. The offense, as usual, was the determining factor for Kansas City. However, their struggles defensively don’t bode well for the playoff run they’re about to embark on.

With the second-best record in the conference, the Chiefs control their own destiny with one of the weakest strengths of schedule through the end of this season. Their stars on that side of the ball didn’t exactly show out tonight, and they won’t be able to let teams hang around when it matters most.
