Kansas City Chiefs: Four players to watch vs Raiders in Week 11

The Kansas City Chiefs head to Las Vegas to play the Raiders for the first time in their brand new stadium. Who should Chiefs fans be keeping an eye on?

The only loss the Kansas City Chiefs have suffered in the entire year of 2020 was against the Raiders in Week 5. While the Raiders played well in that game and deserved the win, the Chiefs looked disinterested on both sides of the ball, and sleepwalking through a game finally caught up to them.

Fortunately, the Chiefs get another crack at their division rival, and with how well this team has played against teams in the AFC West in recent years, fans have to be feeling pretty good about the rematch. That being said, this isn’t a typical Raiders team. They’re going to put up a fight, especially with the opportunity to sweep the Chiefs on the line, something they haven’t accomplished since the 2012 season (which was before Andy Reid took over).

With a big divisional game on the line, let’s take a look at which players Chiefs fans should be keeping an eye on when the team plays in Las Vegas for the first time in franchise history.

Frank Clark

One of the biggest reasons why the Raiders were able to do whatever the heck they wanted to offensively was because the Chiefs’ pass rush wasn’t doing their job. Derek Carr was able to stand comfortably in the pocket and let those long passes rip. This isn’t something he’s known for, so hopefully, the Chiefs can get home this time around.

Frank Clark needs to have a better game in Week 11. Luckily for him, he’ll be squaring off against a backup right tackle, as Sam Young looks to make his sixth career start on Sunday night. Clark will be chomping at the bit at the match-up given to him and should be able to disrupt both the offensive line and Carr.
