KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith has seen the Oakland Raiders enough over the past few years in the rugged AFC West that he knows quite well how difficult it is to be beat them.
The fact that the Washington Redskins dismantled the Raiders last week?
Well, that certainly left an impression.
"That doesn't happen often at all," Smith said. "That's a really, really good unit, run and pass, and they just got suffocated. They got behind, became one-sided and weren't able to get anything going."
Now, the Redskins (2-1) will try to carry the momentum from that 27-10 win over Oakland into a marquee Monday night matchup in Kansas City.
