Raiders Look to Snap Long Losing Streak
The Las Vegas Raiders have lost seven games in a row heading into their Week 13 game against the Kansas City Chiefs. To make matters worse, quarterback Gardner Minshew left their Week 12 loss to the Denver Broncos with an injury. That could mean another change at quarterback for Vegas, or a compromised Minshew. Either way, things are not ideal for Vegas at the most important position on the field going into a game against the defending champs.
Chiefs Enter Off Another Tight Victory
This season, the Kansas City Chiefs have made a habit of winning games despite letting their opposition hang around. That was the case again last week, as the Chiefs barely escaped Charlotte with a win over the Carolina Panthers. Given that the Panthers are one of the worst teams in the NFL, that was certainly not an impressive performance from the Chiefs. But their ability to continue to win games that are close down the stretch is incredibly valuable, even if their performance for the majority of games has left something to be desired.
Raiders vs Chiefs Pick & Prediction
While the Chiefs have struggled to win games with margin this season, we expect them to win big in the Raiders vs Chiefs contest on Black Friday. The quarterback situation for the Raiders is a huge concern, on top of all the other concerns the Raiders are dealing with at this point in time. Look for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs to finally win a game without having to sweat things out in the final minutes and for the Chiefs to cover the spread in this division matchup.
