We have Black Friday football in the AFC West between the Raiders and Chiefs in Kansas City.
Kansas City is 10-1 and bounced back off its first loss on the season with a three-point win at Carolina (30-27) thanks to a walk-off field goal by newly signed kicker Spencer Shrader. Patrick Mahomes and company survived their third back-to-back road set of the season and are back at home versus the Raiders and Chargers -- both on Primetime.
Las Vegas is 2-9 this year and lost seven straight games after starting 2-2. In this seven-game losing streak, the Raiders have scored more than 20 points once and allowed at least 27 points in eight contests. The QB position has been a roulette wheel week-to-week for Las Vegas and it appears Aiden O’Connell is the winner for the starting job in Arrowhead.

Game odds for Chiefs vs. Raiders
The latest odds as of Wednesday courtesy of DraftKings:
Moneyline: Kansas City Chiefs (-675), Las Vegas Raiders (+490)
Spread: Chiefs -12 (-110)
Total: 42.5
The spread opened at Chiefs -11.5 and the total at 43.5, so the Under and Kansas City have taken enough of the handle to move the lines slightly. The preseason look-ahead line for this game was Chiefs -7.5 with a total of 45.5, so the market is extremely low on the Raiders.

NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes Patrick Mahomes to go Under 0.5 interceptions versus Las Vegas:
“Patrick Mahomes has not thrown an interception in three of the last four games with the exception being two picks tossed in the loss to the Bills.
Mahomes bounced back with three touchdowns and no interceptions on 27-of-37 against Carolina in a 30-27 win. Mahomes and company face the Raiders for a second time after beating them 27-20 in Las Vegas earlier this season. The former MVP went 27-of-38 for 262 yards, two touchdowns and one interception.
The Raiders have five interceptions on the entire season (T-27th) and one of those came off Mahomes while he was in a funk. I like that to change this time around at -130 odds to the Under 0.5 interceptions.”
