How to Watch KC Chiefs vs. LV Raiders: NFL Week 16 Streaming, Odds, Preview
It's an AFC West rivalry renewed on Monday, as the Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders are set to square off in a Christmas matchup.
Andy Reid's squad has won six games in a row against the Raiders, including a 31-17 victory earlier this season. In that Week 12 win, Las Vegas got out to a 14-0 lead but ended up getting relatively shut down the rest of the way. It'll be the second time Kansas City faces rookie quarterback Aidan O'Connell in a month, with the Raiders' fourth-round pick leading the club to a 3-3 record in games he's started.
For the Chiefs, a win would clinch the AFC West and extend their streak of division titles to eight in a row. It would also allow them to keep their hopes for the conference's one-seed alive. The visiting team is still technically in the playoff hunt at 6-8, however, so this is a true must-win contest for both sides. It's shaping up to be an exciting matchup on one of the most thrilling days of the year for many.
