Raiders Outlast Chiefs
by wehrmactblitz | 7 years ago | 1 Comments
Chiefs opened up the season welcoming Oakland to the midwest in a game best described as frustrating offensively falling 20-17. Defensively playing well until finally allowing Derek Carr's 'Go to Guy" Amari Cooper to get loose for 63 yards late in the fourth ultimately for the deciding score.
A Trevor Seimian pick on his first attmpt sat the tone; the players knowing it would be a fight for the Raiders came to play and their enthusism showed. Leaving Kansas City to lean on its defense coming up just short.
