Las Vegas Raiders vs Kansas City Chiefs 10/10/2022 NFL Odds and Pick

The Las Vegas Raiders look for their second straight win when they visit Arrowhead Stadium for a showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football.

Las Vegas defeated the Denver Broncos 32-23 last week to improve to 1-3 SU on the season. After losing their first three-game by an aggregate losing margin of 13 points, The Raiders are finally in the win column, the last team in the AFC West to pick up a victory. They are still at the bottom of the division standings with their 1-3 SU record.

The Kansas City Chiefs bounced back from a surprise 20-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts two weeks ago by defeating Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 41-31 in a high-scoring affair. The Chiefs are 3-1 SU on the season and are on top of the AFC West division team standings.

Las Vegas Raiders

Las Vegas finally got on board last week after being winless through Week 3. The game versus the Broncos went back and forth early but the Raiders took the lead for good with a Daniel Carson FG just before the end of the first half. Vegas never looked back and took the game 32-23. The Raiders outgained the Broncos 385-299 in total offense and held the edge in first downs at 25-12.

Vegas is 13th in passing offense at 243.3 yards per game and 14th in rushing at 113 yards per content. The Raiders are 10th in the NFL in scoring at 24.0 points per game this season.

Josh Jacobs has rushed for 336 yards with two TDs on 70 carries while Davante Adams has caught 26 passes for 290 yards with three TD grabs.

The Chiefs bounced back after they were stunned by the Indianapolis Colts in Week 3. Kansas City recovered a fumble on the opening kickoff to take a 7-0 lead just 46 into the game. The Chiefs took a 14-3 lead in the opening quarter and never looked back with the Bucs playing catchup the rest of the way.

Las Vegas put together its best all-around game of the season last week and it’s no surprise why they picked up their first win of the year in that game. The Raider defense still allowed Russell Wilson to make some big plays but overall, they made the plays that mattered most.

The Raiders shut down the Denver rushing attack in that game. Las Vegas also outgained Denver by 127 yards on the ground with Josh Jacobs rushing for 144 yards with two rush TDs. Derek Carr threw for only 188 yards while completing 21-34 passes. Carr did however rush for 40 yards on 7 carries.

Las Vegas got away with the win even if they did not force the Broncos to commit a single turnover. That can’t happen against Kansas City. Mahomes threw a game-altering INT during the Chiefs’ loss to the Colts two weeks ago and if the Raiders want to stop the KC offensive machine, they need to force turnovers.

At about this same time two years ago, the Raiders stunned the Chiefs 40-32 as 10.5-point underdogs. These teams have played thrice since that game and the Chiefs have dominated the Raiders 124-54 in total points scored during that span, winning all three games outright and going 2-1 ATS.

The Kansas City defense has held the Raiders to 23 total points in the last two meetings between these two teams so it’s not just Mahomes and the offense that has overwhelmed the Raiders.

Mahomes bounced back from his worst game of the season against the Colts two weeks ago by throwing 3 TD passes against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last weekend despite getting sacked three times. If Mahomes delivers that kind of performance, it will be hard for the Raiders to keep up on Monday.

Just like what they did to the Bucs last week, I think that the Chiefs are going to start fast here and build a big lead early in the game. The Raiders have a good offense but they don’t have the same kind of firepower as the KC offense. Neither does Carr have the inner Tom Brady in him to stage a comeback after falling behind big.

What are the Spread Odds?

Raiders

+7 (-110)

Chiefs

-7 (-110)

Odds from BetOnline as of 10/10/2022

The Chiefs have outscored the Raiders 16 points per game in their last 10 head-to-head meetings and 23.33 points per game in their most recent three encounters. Kansas City has defeated the Raiders by 7 or more points in seven out of the last eight head-to-head meetings between these two teams.

The closest game between these teams during that span was a 35-31 KC in 2020. In their most recent game played, the Chiefs mauled the Raiders 48-9. The Chiefs’ offense has not missed Tyreek Hill so far this season. I think it stays that way. This KC offense is humming and it should be able to get the job done and cover the spread.

Prediction: Chiefs -7

Under

Odds from BetOnline as of 10/10/2022

Regardless of the margin of victory, these two teams have played in a high-scoring contests in their recent matchups. The Raiders and Chiefs have combined for 50 or more points four times in their last five games played. Both teams have combined to score an average of 55.0 points per game in their last 10 head-to-head meetings and 59.33 points per game in their most recent three-game played against each other.

Both teams are stacked on offense, at least on paper. The Chiefs’ offense has not missed a beat at all so far this season. With the high-powered Kansas City offense playing at home, these teams should produce another high-scoring game.

Prediction: Over 51.5
