Raiders vs. Chiefs Week 8 TV coverage map

The Raiders need a win after losing three straight, but face the undefeated Chiefs this week at Allegiant Stadium. That's the bad news.

The good news is that Raiders fans in Oakland, Los Angeles and of course Las Vegas will be able to watch the game on television.

The weekly broadcast map provided by 506sports.com shows that many fans across the United States will watch the Raiders take on their long-time AFL and AFC West rivals. Broadcast areas are shaded blue and kickoff is at 1:25 p.m. Pacific Time.

The Raiders' first task will be to keep Chiefs' star quarterback Patrick Mahomes from having a big game. Uncharacteristically, he has more interceptions than touchdowns so far, and the Las Vegas defense can't let Mahomes reverse that trend on their guard.

The return of wide receiver Jakobi Meyers from injury should bolster the Raiders' offense, which has struggled all season and has been without Meyers the past two weeks.

It will also be fascinating to see Raiders rookie tight end Brock Bowers perform on the same field as Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. Kelce has long been considered the NFL's best at the position and Bowers leads all NFL tight ends in receptions this year.

On paper, this game is a mismatch, but anything can happen in a rivalry game. The Raiders' victory over the Chiefs on Christmas Day last season is a recent example that fans and many players will remember on the field on Sunday.

If the Raiders can win the turnover battle and limit the penalties, anything is possible on Sunday. That's easier said than done, but Raiders fans across the country are hoping for a big upset in front of a big television audience.
