The game begins at 1 p.m. ET and will be played at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. It will be televised on CBS.
Derek Carr is coming off of the best game of his young career. He had great individual stats—254 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions while completing 78.6 percent of his passes—but perhaps even more impressive is that the offense controlled the ball against the San Francisco 49ers for almost 33 minutes. It's going to take a similar performance from the offense for Oakland to win today.
The Raiders' defense will also be looking for another impressive outing, but it'll have to do so without Sio Moore. The defense has been the team's best unit, and the linebackers have been a major reason why. Particularly, the play of Moore and Khalil Mack has often set the tone. But with Moore out, Oakland will be looking to avoid a major drop-off as either Bojay Filimoeatu or Ray-Ray Armstrong, both unproven, will step into the starting lineup.
It's always a tough task to go into Arrowhead Stadium and walk out with a win, but the Raiders have a real chance to do just that. Follow here for live scores and updates, and join the conversation in the comments section.
