PATRICK MAHOMES & CHIEFS VISIT DEREK CARR & RAIDERS IN KEY AFC WEST SHOWDOWN ON SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL ON NBC, PEACOCK AND UNIVERSO

Football Night in America Begins at 7 p.m. ET; Followed by 8:20 p.m. ET SNF Kickoff

“Sunday Night 7” Free-to-Play Game Features Weekly $100,000 Jackpot

STAMFORD, Conn.Nov. 10, 2021 – 2018 NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs visit Derek Carr and the Las Vegas Raiders in a key AFC West showdown on this week’s edition of NBC’s Sunday Night Football. Coverage begins at 7 p.m. ET with Football Night in America, followed by kickoff at 8:20 p.m. ET from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nev., on NBC, Peacock and Universo.

Sunday’s game features a pivotal AFC West matchup as the Raiders (5-3) and Chiefs (5-4) fight for positioning in a division in which all four teams are within half a game of first place (5-3 Chargers and 5-4 Broncos). The Chiefs and Raiders, who have been in-division rivals since the creation of the AFL in 1960, have met 124 times with Kansas City holding a 68-54-2 all-time advantage (including the postseason).

The Chiefs beat the Green Bay Packers, 13-7, last week for their third win in the past four games. Kansas City’s defense has held opponents to 17 points or less in each of those three victories. Mahomes is one of three quarterbacks this season (Matthew Stafford and Tom Brady) with at least 2,500 passing yards (2,534) and 20-plus touchdown passes (20).

The Raiders look to rebound after losing to the New York Giants, 23-16, in Week 9 as Carr passed for 196 yards and one touchdown. Carr leads the AFC with 2,565 passing yards this season, and Las Vegas’ offense ranks second in the conference averaging 394.5 yards per game.

Calling Chiefs-Raiders is Al Michaels (play-by-play), in his record 36th season as the voice of the NFL’s premier primetime package; 16-time Emmy Award-winner Cris Collinsworth; and four-time Emmy Award-winning sideline reporter Michele Tafoya. Three-time Super Bowl referee Terry McAulay is the Sunday Night Football rules analyst.

NBC’s coverage of Sunday Night Football is led by executive producer Fred Gaudelli and director Drew Esocoff. SNF has won a record 11 Sports Emmys for Outstanding Live Sports Series.

Football Night in America features host Mike Tirico and co-host Maria Taylor, Hall of Fame head coach Tony Dungy, Super Bowl XLIV MVP Drew Brees, former NFL quarterback Chris Simms, and NFL Insider Mike Florio. Co-host Jac Collinsworth and two-time Super Bowl champion Rodney Harrison will provide on-field analysis and reports from Allegiant Stadium.

Football Night, the most-watched studio show in sports since its debut in 2006, begins every Sunday at 7 p.m. ET. The coordinating producer of FNIA is Rob Hyland and the co-producer is Matt Casey. FNIA is directed by Pierre Moossa.

FLEXIBLE SCHEDULING:

Flexible scheduling will be used in Weeks 11-18. Additionally, in Weeks 5-10, flexible scheduling may be used in no more than two weeks. In Weeks 5-17, the schedule lists the games tentatively set for Sunday Night Football on NBC. Only Sunday afternoon games are eligible to be moved to Sunday night, in which case the tentatively scheduled Sunday night game would be moved to an afternoon start time.

For Week 18, two Saturday games and the Sunday night game will be announced no later than six days prior to January 9. The schedule does not list Saturday games or a Sunday night game in Week 18, but games with playoff implications will be moved to those time slots. Flexible scheduling ensures quality matchups in all Sunday time slots in those weeks and gives “surprise” teams a chance to play their way into primetime.
