Missed opportunities for the Raiders result in the loss to the Chiefs

With the Chiefs backed up on their own goal line, John Jenkins deflected Mahomes at the line of scrimmage and the ball landed in the hands of Tre’von Moehrig for his second interception of the season. Although Moehrig’s punt return was at the three-yard line, the offense couldn’t get the ball into the end zone on four downs.

A 19, 87-yard drive for the Chiefs ended with another field goal to make it 20-13.

Minshew fumbled the ball on the next drive, which was then recovered by quarterback Drue Tranquill. Kansas City scored seven more points off the turnover — a 9-yard pass from Mahomes to rookie Xavier Worthy making it 27-13.

Minshew didn’t let the turnover shake him, finding DJ Turner for an 11-yard touchdown to end a 13-play, 70-yard drive before the two-minute warning.

After the Chiefs recovered the fumble, Kansas City fumbled it for the win as the Raiders ran out of timeouts.

With this loss to the Chiefs, the Raiders fall to 2-6 heading into their Week 9 road game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
