Final score: Chiefs defeat Raiders 27-20 in Week 8

The Kansas City Chiefs are 7-0 after defeating the Las Vegas Raiders 27-20 at Allegiant Stadium in Week 8.

Led by their outstanding defense, the reigning Super Bowl champions held quarterback Gardner Minshew and the Raiders to just 228 yards of total offense in the game.

Star tight end Travis Kelce led the Chiefs in receiving yards, notching 10 receptions for 90 yards and a touchdown in his most impressive performance of the 2024 regular season.

Patrick Mahomes threw for a total of 262 yards and completed 27 of his 38 pass attempts for two touchdowns and one interception.

In the running game, Kansas City relied on veteran running back Kareem Hunt, who rushed for 59 yards and one touchdown.

 

Though the Chiefs didn’t blow out their bitter divisional rival, this win will keep Kansas City’s perfect season alive for another week.

Expect to see all of the Chiefs’ stars continue doing their best to bring Kansas City its third consecutive Super Bowl title in February.
