The Oakland Raiders need a quality win over the Kansas City Chiefs to break into the playoff picture as a legitimate threat.
Both teams enter this contest with significant injuries—the Chiefs with a few more than the Raiders in key areas.
However, Chiefs running back Charcandrick West rejoins the lineup after missing a game with a hamstring injury. He completes a two-man backfield responsible for propelling the Chiefs into playoff contention.
The Raiders must find a solution to a lackluster ground attack to extend time of possession and keep the defense fresh down the stretch.
