The Chiefs last year followed up every loss with a win in the next game and the they’re coming off their first loss of the season. Also, the Chiefs best the Raiders twice last year when the Raiders were a hot team and Carr was at the top of his game. Carr isn’t 100% right now, so given the short week I think the Chiefs have a major advantage here.
