Is our only win at Alligiant vs the Chiefs last season when Mahomes didn’t play in the last game? My Chiefs “friend” calls it Arrowhead West. Winning this game would shock the entire league.

Andy Reid is such a good coach that the Chiefs will be well prepared. I think the outcome will be reduced to which team makes the fewest mistakes. So far Kubiak has taken a page out of Sun Tzu's playbook and doesn't interrupt the opposition when they are making mistakes.

To answer your question, yes, the last game of the 2025 season was then only time we have beaten the Chiefs at Allegiant.

After two weeks people thought Saints were going to win their division.

Don't care who is on your schedule, football is an any given Sunday thing.

That said, I think we lose handily to the Chiefs. 31-13.

Saints are still going to win their division, they’re a good team that just needs to learn how to close. They could very well could have been 2-0 coming into yesterdays game.

What Klint is doing with the Raiders is he's getting the most out of each players skill set..like Moneyball with the 2002 Oakland A’s. Kubiak is doing what we always complained other coaches did not, instead they would force their system on players who didn’t fit. Gruden did this, Cable did this, Bugle, Turner, McDaniels, the only coaches who tried to adapt the players were Hue, believe it or not (he just was a bad HC), Kiffin—not experienced enough, and to a lesser degree Del Rio via Musgrave until he unwisely canned him. Kubiak has proven to be on a different level though up to now, and if you dont agree just take a look at Cody White and Kirk Cousins stats..Kirko has 9 TD passes in 3 games and three of those are to White..the only three catches he has by the way..Everytime White touches the ball in Kubiaks system its six points. Crazy

Edit, and we ain’t losing 31-13 to the Chiefs..this ain’t Pete’s team man. It’s going to be close game

I know it not going to happen; but wouldn’t it be something if we beat the Chiefs 41-3….

The football world would explode

the football world would be pissed. no one outside of Raider Nation wants to believe this team isn't f[raiders_icon]cking around anymore.

All I wanted to see this season is the Raiders sending the chiefs home with their tail between their legs. I can accept a Raider loss at arrowhead but I am so GD sick of hearing the chiefs chant in the Raiders' home stadium. And I can see them doing it too. Make fewer mistakes than the chiefs and keep mahomes bottled up in the pocket and under duress.

As mentioned earlier, they've beat them before with worse teams.

Chiefs are a well coached team on both sides of the ball and we are in an infancy rebuild. Yes, so far we’ve surprised the league going 3-0 but I’m not sure Cousins can out duel Mahomes. Spags will have his defense applying pressure and the Chiefs have more weapons for the better Qb. Unfortunately, the ball needs to bounce our way, imo. Having Walker at running back this year is a clear upgrade and major challenge for our defense, almost unfair trying to stop an aggressive run game alongside a very good passing attack. Literally nobody outside our fan base expects a win, but if we pull it off, this is where the league gets put on notice.

This game will also give us a much better idea of how we can handle our upcoming, daunting schedule. A win vs the Chiefs would be a huge boost to our morale that I believe we’ve already started building.

I'm sure a focal point of the D staff will be containing Walker who's been a stud for them. Do that and we've got a shot.

Another thing I've seen too many times this year with the Chiefs; old man, slow AF Kelce rumbling bumbling and stumbling 60 yards down field, and no one within shouting distance. Gotta chalk that up to the genius of Andy Reid I guess, but one thing we have now that we haven't had in decades is LINEBACKERS. Who can cover. Let's shut Kelce up for a bit and make Taylor sad.

Stukes coming back this week is huge. I think this Raider team might match up well with them. I'm calling a win.

Watching Pola Mao covering is just painful. That first TD was sickening to me.

That's no lie. The way our secondary fades when IPM goes in is ALMOST comical. What a great pick Stukes turned out to be. Need that boy to stay healthy.

I was watching the play before the snap. He lined up late, lined up slightly inside and like 7 yards off. The fade route was a given and yet he was acting like he was going to jump the route to grab an easy INT. On a fade route. What a tool.

Then like someone turned a light switch on the D line exploded and took over, O line got us enough of a running game to make a difference. Can't wait till late to dominate against the Chiefs. D must control Walker, watch Mahomes getting loose, cover the flat for the short pass. O line? Open holes, run the ball. No more having to settle for FG,s when deep in the red zone due to penalties. WE can definitely win the game, Go Raiders!

In years past we would have sat back and let them pick us apart for the loss. Leonard said screw that and sent the house at Shough. Mad respect for that.

We need the same mentality

To all.

As we reside in Vegas? We’re playing with House money right now.

NO ONE is expecting us to win; from their fans to the NFL community at large. Too many are thinking we’re “the same old Raiders” and what that entails.

Use that to our advantage, play loose and with nothing to lose.

Because if we win this game? We’re as good as anyone in the NFL.

And truth be told? We deserve it. We toughed out decades of misery. It’s our time to shine. Go out there this Sunday and let it all hang out. I’m of the mind that the Chiefs are not invincible this year. Don’t play them as if they are.

Go Raiders!

I've heard a lot of "The NFL is better when the Raiders are good", right or wrong.
I've heard nothing but the Raiders got the GM/coaching staff right.
The rest takes time and results.
I think the football world has been very fair.
Believing in this team is new for many Raider fans to, if you are under 23 you never seen a playoff win.
