Here’s Why Baltimore Ravens Want Las Vegas Raiders to Tame Kansas City Chiefs on SNF

The race for the top position in the AFC is getting more cut-throat by the week. To give an idea, the Denver Broncos were at the bottom of the AFC West division just four games ago. But now they are number two! And after the Mini Bowl on Monday Night Football, the Kansas City Chiefs‘ claim to AFC Championship playoffs looks shakier than ever. The Philadelphia Eagles had beaten them 17-21. While the Baltimore Ravens are the king after Week 11, a big shake-up could be possible.

On Sunday Night Football, the Chiefs will take on their divisional rivals, the Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders are currently 5-6, but if they manage to beat the Chiefs, it will spell trouble for their claim to the AFC championship. That’s exactly what the Ravens want. But how probable is a Raiders victory over the strong Chiefs?

How likely is it that the Raiders will beat the Chiefs?

The Ravens are currently 8-3, while the Chiefs are 7-3. The Chiefs, after their recent rare defeat, will be looking for a victory when they host the Raiders on Sunday. Historically, they have won 5 straight games and they will want to extend their winning streak. Meanwhile, the Raiders have recently had a tough time themselves after losing to the Miami Dolphins.

Kansas City Chiefs are currently the defending Super Bowl Champions, and the Raiders will find it really difficult to beat them. But they recently made headlines when they fired their head coach Josh Daniels.

Following the shake-up, Antonio Pierce took over as interim HC. As compared to Daniels, he has a winning record of 2-1. Will he manage to work his magic on Sunday against the formidable Chiefs? But what does all of this mean for the Ravens? How will the Chiefs’ loss affect them?

The Baltimore Ravens desperately want the Chiefs to lose

The Ravens are in a somewhat precarious position. The Chiefs are just one victory away from tying for the top spot in the AFC. And if they win the game against the Raiders, that is what will happen. The Ravens themselves are up against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. The Chargers are 4-6 and it will be tough for them to beat the Ravens.

The Chargers are 2nd last in the entire league in terms of offensive yards allowed per game, while the Ravens hold a top-ten position in terms of offense. Their best bet would be to limit the run of the Purple Pain’s offense. On the flip side, the Chargers have a top-ten passing offense, while the Ravens rank third in passing defense. How will all of these factors play out on the gridiron field? Only time will tell.

The Chiefs vs. Raiders game kicks off at 4:25 p.m. ET on November 26 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
