Victory seemed within reach for the Las Vegas Raiders, who were down by two and in field goal position with 15 seconds left in the game. But the Kansas City Chiefs had other plans.
On 3rd-and-3, Raiders quarterback Aidan O’Connell fumbled the snap, allowing the Chiefs to recover the ball and secure the win and their tenth-straight playoff appearance.
A Defeat Foretold and a Race to the Bottom
It was a close game, but the 11-1 Chiefs have been living on the edge this season all while winning. They are 9-0 in one-possession games this season.
O’Connell connected with Tray Tucker on a 58-yard touchdown to start the fourth quarter and put the Raiders up 17-16.
Following their 17-19 defeat to the Chiefs, the Raiders dropped to 2-10, tying the New York Giants, who fell to the Dallas Cowboys yesterday, for the worst record in the NFL.
