The Kansas City Chiefs picked up their 11th win of the 2024 NFL season on Friday, but the 19-17 win over the Las Vegas Raiders once again saw the defending champions struggle. And both <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/patrick-mahomes">Patrick Mahomes</a> and Andy Reid know that one of the team’s biggest problems has been at left tackle.



With the quarterback exposed to hits and multiple pressures throughout the contest, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/andy-reid">Reid</a> decided to make a change late in the game by benching Wanya Morris, moving Joe Thuney to left tackle, with Mike Caliendo stepping in to play left guard.



Speaking to reporters after the game, Mahomes made it clear to Reid that he trusts in all his Chiefs teammates. However, the 2x <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> MVP also admitted there were moments where he didn’t have enough confidence to try and make certain plays.



“Whoever’s out there, I trust those guys to go out there and make it happen,” Mahomes said, via Sports Illustrated. “I’ve seen those guys play, and they’ve played at high levels, and so, the coaches made a move, and I thought the guys went in there and did a good job. I’ve got to trust it — I think there was times I didn’t trust it there on that last drive, and if I can trust it and maybe make some of those throws, then we’re not in the situation we were in at the end of the game.”

<h2>Reid explains Chiefs’ late change at LT</h2>



In his postgame press conference, Reid also addressed his decision to bench Morris for the final two drives of the game, explaining that Mahomes was lacking protection on his blindside.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-andy-reid-makes-something-clear-about-chiefs-lt-struggles-after-patrick-mahomes-comments"></div>

 

 


“Wanya was, he was struggling a little bit,” Reid said. “So, moved Joe over there, Caliendo in at guard. I thought it was the right thing to do at that time. Talked to (offensive line coach) Andy [Heck] about it, he agreed with it, and so we made that move just to solidify things. Pat took a few hits there, and so we were struggling at times.”



<h2>Reid knows LT issues are a problem for Mahomes</h2>



Reid will never throw his players under the bus, but the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs">Chiefs</a> head coach didn’t pretend like things were just fine on Friday. That’s why he admitted Morris’ performance left much to be desired.



“I would tell you that it’s disruptive to any offense if the quarterback’s getting hit and not able to get the ball off,” Reid said. “And so that can be a problem. Now, listen, he’s playing against a couple of good players, but you’ve got to do better than what we did there.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/chiefs-news-isiah-pacheco-sends-clear-message-to-kareem-hunt-andy-reid-after-first-game-since-injury"></div>


The Chiefs’ problems at left tackle have been persistent in the 2024 NFL season. Rookie Kingsley Suamataia entered the year as the starter, but lost the job only two weeks into the campaign after a poor outing against the Cincinnati Bengals, when he got outplayed by Trey Hendrickson. Morris has been the Chiefs’ LT since Week 3, but whether he’ll keep the job for another week remains to be seen.

Andy Reid has a problem after the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs">Kansas City Chiefs</a> clinched a spot in the playoffs with a win over the Las Vegas Raiders. The offensive line is really struggling to protect <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/patrick-mahomes">Patrick Mahomes</a>.



In the last two games, the star quarterback has been sacked nine times and, considering he’s been dealing with an ankle injury, this is a major issue with big rivals looming on the schedule like the Chargers, Steelers and Broncos.



Now, in one of the most heated debates in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a>, Reid publicly admitted the left tackle position is a huge issue. In the road to another <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a>, something has to change.



<h2>Andy Reid sends big warning to Chiefs’ offensive line</h2>



After the game against the Las Vegas Raiders, Andy Reid was asked by reporters about why he benched Wanya Morris in the fourth quarter and then moved Joe Thuney to the left tackle position. 


 

 


“Wanya, he was struggling a little bit. So, I moved Joe over there and Mike Caliendo at guard. I thought it was the right thing to do at that time. I talked to Andy (Heck) about it. He agreed with it. So, we made that move just to solidify things. Pat took a few hits there. So, we were struggling at times.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-patrick-mahomes-sends-clear-message-to-chiefs-after-win-against-raiders"></div>


<h2>Who is the left tackle for Chiefs?</h2>



D.J. Humphries could be the starting left tackle for the Chiefs after he was just signed a few days ago. He had an impressive recovery from a torn ACL last season with the Arizona Cardinals. Reid admitted pressure in the pocket for Mahomes could derail the championship hopes.



“It’s disruptive to any offense if the quarterback is getting hit and not able to get the ball off. That can be a problem. Now, listen, he (Wanya) was playing against a couple of good players, but, you’ve got to do better than what we did there.”

NFL News: Andy Reid sends clear warning to Chiefs' offensive line failing to protect Patrick Mahomes

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/patrick-mahomes">Patrick Mahomes</a> and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs">Kansas City Chiefs</a> officially became the first team to clinch a playoff spot in the NFL. It all happened after a thrilling 19-17 win over the Las Vegas Raiders.



However, it’s clear that the Chiefs haven’t found their best version yet. In a span of three weeks, they lost the undefeated season against the Bills, almost went to overtime with the Panthers and, if not for a controversial call by the referees, the Raiders might have pulled the upset.



So, trying to win a third consecutive <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a>, Mahomes got real about the chances to defend title. Right now, they’re not favorites to do it even with an impressive record.



<h2>What is the Chiefs’ record right now?</h2>



The Chiefs have an 11-1 record as first place in the AFC West. Although they control their destiny to clinch home-field advantage and win the division, Patrick Mahomes isn’t happy with the current status of the team.



“It keeps you hungry. You’re not satisfied with where we’re at even though we’re winning football games. We know we have to get better. I think everybody in that locker room knows we have to get better. We want to go and prove that. Our goal over these last few games is to prove the team that we believe we really are going into the playoffs.”



<h2>Have the Chiefs clinched a playoff spot?</h2>



The Chiefs have already secured a playoff spot, but, they just have a one-game advantage over the Buffalo Bills for the No.1 seed in the AFC. However, Mahomes sent a big warning to the rest of the NFL.



“We just hold ourselves to such a high standard that we don’t feel like we’re playing our best football. We’ve got to find a way to build up so we can play great as a full entire team. It’s awesome that we’re finding ways to get wins. At the end of the day, that’s what you’re going for. But our goal is to get to that Super Bowl. We’re going to try to continue to get better so that we’re playing our best football hopefully by the end of the year.”

Andy Reid has been dealing with injuries since preseason, but, thanks to the legendary head coach’s adjustments working alongside general manager, Brett Veach, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs">Kansas City Chiefs</a> are still a contender posting an 11-1 record.



The biggest impact came on offense. First, it was the wide receiver group losing Hollywood Brown and Rashee Rice. Then, the running back position took a hit when Isiah Pacheco suffered a fractured fibula.



However, the Chiefs are getting healthy and that could be the key factor to win another <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a>. Pacheco is already back in a dangerous tandem with Kareem Hunt and more help is coming.



<h2>Who is injured on the Chiefs?</h2>



After the Chiefs got a huge win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 13, Albert Breer confirmed that Hollywood Brown will be available to help Patrick Mahomes very soon.


 

 


“The Chiefs expect Hollywood Brown back on the practice field in the second or third week of December. That’s leading into games against the Chargers and the Browns. They expect him back on the game field in Week 17 against the Texans or Week 18 against the Broncos. Certainly, there’s some help coming.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/patrick-mahomes-net-worth"></div>


Brown arrived this year to the Chiefs after a very disappointing tenure with the Arizona Cardinals. He was supposed to be a key factor bringing speed for Mahomes, but, in the first play of preseason against the Jaguars, the wide receiver suffered a shoulder injury.

Week 13 of the NFL came close to delivering the first upset of the day, as the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/las-vegas-raiders">Las Vegas Raiders</a> were on the verge of pulling off a major win against the defending champions, the Kansas City Chiefs lead by Patrick Mahomes, at Arrowhead Stadium. Aidan O’Connell, quarterback for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/antonio-pierce">Antonio Pierce</a>‘s team, made it clear how he felt about what could have been a pleasant surprise for the league.


 


The final score was 19-17 in favor of Andy Reid’s team. Although the game was very close, the home team didn’t face many major challenges throughout the match. The Raiders could have pulled off the big upset of the day, but key mistakes on crucial plays left them empty-handed.



Aidan O’Connell took over the starting role after <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/raiders-antonio-pierce-loses-key-player-to-a-season-ending-injury-before-facing-patrick-mahomes-chiefs">Gardner Minshew’s tough injury last weekend</a>, and he didn’t hide from his responsibility after the game where his team came very close to beating the Chiefs.



“It’s completely my fault,” O’Connell said. “I was looking out to the right making sure guys were set, and I started clapping. In my head, I was thinking signal the ball to get the ball, but when I start clapping, it basically tells Jackson to snap the ball.”



<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="ck-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">"There&apos;s really nobody to blame but myself." Aidan O&apos;Connell says the final play was "completely my fault" and that he clapped too early which led to the botched snap. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Raiders?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Raiders</a> <a href="https://t.co/iUdLF1N2MB">pic.twitter.com/iUdLF1N2MB</a>— Logan Reever (@loganreever) <a href="https://twitter.com/loganreever/status/1862644626152464801?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 29, 2024</a></blockquote></div><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
</div></figure>



“Jackson did exactly what he should’ve done. I clapped too early. That’s just how the football bounces sometimes; it didn’t go our way. Super tough, but there’s really nobody to blame but myself. That’s probably the hardest part to swallow,” O’Connell finally concluded.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-andy-reid-talks-about-chiefs-controversial-win-over-raiders-on-final-play"></div>


<h2>The mistake on the final key play of the game</h2>



The Raiders currently hold one of the worst records in the league with ten losses and only two wins so far this season. However, they gave a strong fight to the current two-time <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> champions and even could have won the game in the final moments.



The player who lamented the decisive play was none other than cornerback Jackson Powers-Johnson, who couldn’t quite sync up with O’Connell. Both took responsibility for the situation. This was reported by Tashaan Reid through his X (formerly Twitter) account @tashaanreid.


 


“Raiders C Jackson Powers-Johnson said it was a miscommunication on the final offensive play. He thought O’Connell was calling for the snap, but he wasn’t. He shouldered the blame. ‘We didn’t come up short,’ Powers-Johnson said, ‘I came up short.’“

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/patrick-mahomes">Patrick Mahomes</a> had one of the most complicated games of the season, but the quarterback still led the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs">Kansas City Chiefs</a> to a crucial 19-17 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders.



Maxx Crosby and K’Lavon Chaisson were a nightmare for the Chiefs’ offensive line and that’s why, in the final seconds of the game, the Raiders had a golden opportunity to win at Arrowhead Stadium.



However, a very controversial call by the referees prevented them of kicking a field goal. Now, the defending <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> champions have clinched a playoff berth with many NFL experts doubting if they will survive more close games in the final stretch of the year.



<h2>Is it possible for the Chiefs to go to the Super Bowl?</h2>



The Chiefs have an 11-1 record and control their destiny to clinch home-field advantage toward the Super Bowl. The problem is a lot of uncertainty around this team which has won 14 consecutive one-score games.


 

 


After a tough battle against the Raiders, Patrick Mahomes sent a clear message to his teammates. If they want to make another championship run, a lot of things have to improve.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-andy-reid-talks-about-chiefs-controversial-win-over-raiders-on-final-play"></div>


“We have to execute better so it doesn’t come down to that (controversial final play). Just too many mistakes at the end of the day. Offensively, we didn’t execute in the red zone and didn’t execute enough on third down. We got to clean that up if we want to get to where we want to go.”



<h2>Did the Chiefs clinch the playoffs?</h2>



The Kansas City Chiefs clinched a spot in the playoffs with a win over the Raiders and the previous loss of the Miami Dolphins against the Packers. Mahomes also talked about this achievement.



“When you clinch a playoff spot, that’s your first goal. Get into the playoffs and give yourself a chance to go for that Super Bowl. We know we have a long way to go. We have to continue to work to be a better football team going into the playoffs.”

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jon-gruden">Jon Gruden</a>, a well-known former head coach, has successfully transitioned into football analysis in recent months, offering insights on games, players, and coaches. Recently, he dedicated a post to Maxx Crosby following the Raiders’ game against the Kansas City Chiefs.



Despite the Raiders’ 19-17 loss to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs">Kansas City Chiefs</a>, Crosby stood out with a dominant performance, recording four quarterback hits on Patrick Mahomes and three solo tackles.



Gruden highlighted Crosby’s impact on X (formerly Twitter), writing: “What other pass rushers play 100% of the plays in a game? Maxx Crosby’s all-out effort, production, and stamina are incredible. I hope every young pass rusher pays close attention to it!”



Crosby has played 100% of the defensive snaps in multiple games this season, a testament to his endurance. Despite the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/las-vegas-raiders">Raiders</a>’ poor 2024 record, Crosby has been a defensive standout, notably in their only win against the Ravens, where he logged 65 defensive snaps.

Andy Reid and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs">Kansas City Chiefs</a> survived another thriller on Black Friday to beat the Las Vegas Raiders. It was a 19-17 victory over a division rival which gave the defending <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> champions a playoff spot.



Now, in one of the most impressive streaks in NFL history, they have won 14 consecutive one-score games. However, the big question is if that will be enough down the road.



Before the game, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/patrick-mahomes">Patrick Mahomes</a> and the Chiefs were 12-point favorites, but, as it often happens in such great rivalries, Antonio Pierce and his players showed a massive amount of courage.



<h2>What is the Chiefs record right now?</h2>



The Kansas City Chiefs have an 11-1 record and officially became the first team to clinch a berth for the playoffs. Nevertheless, following all the celebrations, Andy Reid talked about the offensive struggles during the game. 


 

 


“There are some good things. Most of all, the win was a positive here. These things are hard to get in this league, especially against this crew. They do a nice job against us. It seems like every time we play them it comes right down the end. We have to do better in the red zone. We were one for five. That’s not good enough. Take care of business there. The six penalties was not a positive either. We have to make sure we clean those things up. It’s hard to go backwards in this league and win games.”


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/patrick-mahomes-net-worth"></div>


About the final sequence which gave the Chiefs a win thanks to a controversial penalty and fumble, Reid didn’t have much comments. The referees called illegal shift when the play seemed to be dead by whistle. “Well, it wasn’t confusing from our standpoint. We were good with it. They had to clarify a couple of things, but, it was a fumble. They just wanted to make sure they had all the basis covered.”

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/las-vegas-raiders">Las Vegas Raiders</a> will take on the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13 of the 2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season in a game that will be played on Black Friday. Antonio Pierce‘s team will be without a key player when they visit Andy Reid‘s Raiders at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri.



The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kansas-city-chiefs">Chiefs</a> are on a 10-1 streak and want to continue to be strong contenders to win the Super Bowl, so they will look to leave no doubt and defeat the weak Raiders, who are 2-9 and have no expectations of having a good season.



It’s been a rough ride for Las Vegas this season. From the troubled departure of star Davante Adams to the New York Jets, to injuries and starting quarterback changes. As they prepare to face the Chiefs in a divisional matchup, another big name is set to leave the field.



<h2>The important player who won’t play for the Raiders</h2>



The key player who will not be available for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/antonio-pierce">Antonio Pierce</a>‘s Raiders is none other than running back Alexander Mattison. The key weapon of the Las Vegas franchise missed last Sunday’s loss to the Denver Broncos with an ankle injury and was listed as questionable for the divisional matchup against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/andy-reid">Andy Reid</a>‘s Chiefs.

<h2>Injuries are a problem for Pierce and Raiders</h2>



Pierce is having trouble putting together a competitive team, something that happened to him throughout the season. Aidan O’Connell will be the starting quarterback after recovering from a broken thumb suffered in the October 20 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. However, the Raiders’ head coach has other players out.

Zamir White (quadriceps) was ruled out for the second straight week, as was Mattison. Corner Nate Hobbs, guard Cody Whitehair, wide receiver Ramel Keyton, tight end Harrison Bryant and defensive tackle Matthew Butler will also be out Friday.



<h2>Andy Reid to count on two Super Bowl champions to face Raiders</h2>



While <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-andy-reid-confirms-patrick-mahomes-will-miss-key-chiefs-teammate-vs-raiders-due-to-injury">Andy Reid confirmed in recent hours that Patrick Mahomes will miss key Chiefs teammate against the Raiders</a>, the Chiefs’ head coach will be happy to have two Super Bowl champions back. They are running back Isiah Pacheco and defensive end Charles Omenihu, who were activated from injured reserve for the Black Friday game.
