An AFC powerhouse on the rise and a hobbled NFC team meet on Monday Night Football in Kansas City.
The Chiefs (4-3), riding a four-game winning streak and looking to continue a push for the AFC West title, comes in on a high note after a 31-0 shellacking of the Raiders last week.
Fun Fact: The Chiefs had 30 first downs in their win over the Raiders.
Another Fun Fact: The Raiders ran a total of 30 plays on offense in their loss to the Chiefs.
Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs’ offense is firing on all cylinders despite injuries to LT Josh Simmons and RG Trey Smith on the offensive line. WR Rashee Rice is looking to build off his season debut last week in which he caught seven passes for 42 yards with two touchdowns.
For Washington (3-4), the challenge is immense. The Commanders have lost two in a row and limp into the game without starting quarterback Jayden Daniels (hamstring). Veteran Marcus Mariota steps in to face a stout Chiefs’ defense that has been dominant of late. The good news is Mariota is expected to have wideouts Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel active and in the starting lineup.
Lets take a deeper dive into Monday Night Football between the Commanders and the Chiefs.
