Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs will take on division rivals the Las Vegas Raiders on Monday Night Football.
The Kansas City Chiefs and the Las Vegas Raiders will face each other on Monday Night Football in Week 5 in a battle of the AFC West. This promises to be an exciting game as two strong offenses will go against each other.
The Chiefs are coming off a huge win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week where they shut all their critics and put 41 points on one of the best defenses in the league. It is why their confidence will be high going into this game.
On the other hand, the Las Vegas Raiders won their first game of the season last week as they got the better of the Denver Broncos, and they will hope to build on that momentum and get another win over their other division rival this week.

Patrick Mahomes boasts a strong record against the Las Vegas Raiders and we can expect him to turn up for this game as the Raiders have one of the worst defenses in the league, and this Chiefs offense had put 41 points on the Bucs last week. Mahomes could have a 3-4 touchdown passes in this game against the Raiders and lead the Chiefs to a big win over their disivion rivals.
Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs have got the better of the Las Vegas Raiders more often than not, and they’ll be expected to get the job done once again as they are playing at home, and the Raiders haven’t looked good yet this season.
