Raiders Film Review: Pass coverage continues to be a sore spot for the defense

For three quarters of Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs and wunderkind Quarterback Patrick Mahomes, the Raiders defense held the Chiefs vaunted attack scoreless.

Oh you want to talk about the second quarter? That’s 15 minutes of football Raiders fans would surely like to forget. The Chiefs scored 28 points in one quarter of play flipping the game from a Raider lead to woefully behind in a matter of a few drives.

It seemed like Mahomes couldn’t miss during those 15 minutes and lit the Raiders secondary up for over 200 yards, continually hitting deep shots at a rate more like his college days at Texas Tech.
