Preview for Kansas City Chiefs @ Las Vegas Raiders

The Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders put their unbeaten records on the line when the AFC West rivals meet at Allegiant Stadium in Week 4.

Both teams have made perfect starts to the 2026 NFL season, meaning Sunday’s winner will finish the weekend with the outright lead in the division.

Patrick Mahomes remains at the centre of everything Kansas City do offensively, but protecting the quarterback will be one of the biggest challenges facing the visitors in Las Vegas.

Kahlil Benson endured a difficult afternoon in Week 3 as Mahomes took several significant hits against the Miami Dolphins.

That is a concern heading into a matchup with Maxx Crosby, who has consistently caused problems for Kansas City’s offensive line since entering the NFL.

Kansas City also have questions defensively, particularly when it comes to stopping Brock Bowers.

The Raiders tight end represents one of Las Vegas’ biggest offensive weapons, and the Chiefs have struggled to contain players at his position.

Las Vegas, meanwhile, continue their impressive start under Klint Kubiak.

The Raiders have endured several difficult seasons and regular changes at head coach, but a 3-0 opening to 2026 has created genuine optimism in Las Vegas.
