The Raiders stood up to the team of the hour from San Francisco up to overtime on the last matchday and looked really strong offensively. With the Backup-Quarterback Jarrett Stidham, who started in his first NFL game, Las Vegas was able to attack the Niners’ good defense in the passing game.

The Chiefs, for their part, continue to march from victory to victory and so for them it’s still about that first place in the American Football Conference. The first place in the conference would be valuable in that the “1st seed” not only has no play on the wildcard weekend, but would also have home rights until the conference finals.

At 34:37, the Raiders drew the short straw against San Francisco last Sunday evening. This bankruptcy finally sealed that Missing the postseasonwhich had already become apparent over the entire season due to the lack of consistency.

Offensively explosive with Stidham

Before the game against the 49ers, Las Vegas demoted actual quarterback Derek Carr, who now probably no future more in the “City of Sin”. The reason for the demotion was probably primarily financial reasons, since Carr would have been entitled to a large sum in the event of a possible injury.

Of course, the franchise wanted to avoid that. However, Stidham represented him so well against the 49ers that he kept his chances of being under contract with the Raiders at least as a backup quarterback in the coming season.

Stidham, who was drafted by the New England Patriots in 2019 and has been playing in Las Vegas since this season, recorded 365 passing yards and three touchdown passes. He always put his pass recipients in the limelight and with 153 receiving yards once again excelled Davante Adams. According to our forecast, he will also play a key offensive role in the Raiders vs. Chiefs game. In the first encounter of week five, he had 124 yards and two touchdowns.

The Las Vegas Defense is one of the allowed points in the statistics lower third of the league. In mid-October, in the first duel between the two teams, they allowed 30 points for Kansas City. That’s why we tend to tip between the Raiders and Chiefs that the home side concede as many points for the fourth time this season.

It is one special situation in the NFL, because even if the Chiefs manage to win in Las Vegas, they probably won’t know after game day whether this success is enough for first place in the “American Football Conference”. The background is the canceled “Monday Night Game” between the Bills and Bengals due to the collapse of Damar Hamlin on the field. This game will be rescheduled after the 18th matchday at the earliest. This gives Buffalo another chance to make the AFC’s 1st Seed with two wins.

One of the best teams in the league

In order for Kansas City to even have the opportunity to challenge the Bills for this place, they should win the duel in “Allegiant Stadium”. A handicap of 7.5 points is given to guests on the betting market by bookmakers for the Raiders vs. Chiefs clash. We find the best betting odds for this at Bookie Bwin. However, they only won the “first leg”, in which Kansas City was assigned a similar handicap, thanks to a failed “two-point conversion” by the Raiders.

In week eight, head coach Andy Reid’s team had their “Bye Week.” Since then they won eight of their nine appearances. In each of those games, except for the 20-17 win over the Titans, they added at least 24 points. This is also confirmed by looking at the statistics of the points scored, which KC leads with an average of 29.1 points. They also top the league with 6,683 offensive yards.

with 22.1 points, which Kansas City conceded, they also leave only a few teams behind in this category. Exactly that could be their undoing in the playoffs, despite the enormous offensive power. In the final regular season game between the Raiders and Chiefs, we dare to predict that the home side will pose problems for the vulnerable guest defense.

Key Players:

QB: Patrick Mahomes
RB: Isiah Pacheco
WR: Marquez Valdes-Scantling
TE: Travis Kelce
K: Harrison Butker
