Raiders lose to lowly Chiefs

Tyler Thigpen put together one effective drive for the Kansas City Chiefs. It turned out to be enough to beat the Oakland Raiders in a matchup between two of the NFL’s worst teams.

Thigpen led a 91 yard drive that was capped by Larry Johnson’s 2 yard tiebreaking touchdown run early in the 4th quarter to lead the Chiefs to a 20-13 victory. The Chiefs snapped a 7 game losing streak and won for just the second time in their last 21 games.

Kansas City, now 2-10, scored its first touchdown on Maurice Leggett’s 67-yard fumble return on a botched fake field goal by the Raiders, who are now 3-9.

Tony Gonzalez had 8 catches for 110 yards and Johnson ran for 92 yards on 24 carries

Next up for the Raiders is a trip to San Diego this Thursday.
