KANSAS CITY - The Raiders concluded an impressive 7-9 season, more than doubling last year’s win total, with an obligatory appearance at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday. Oakland lost 23-17 - a very deceiving final score - after Mychal Rivera couldn’t get out of bounds and give his team a shot at a Hail Mary.
The Chiefs, playing for an AFC West division title, seemingly put away the game with nine points in third quarter on a safety off a blocked punt and then Alex Smith’s second touchdown of the day, a 15-yard pass to tight end Demetrius Harris.
