Is it time to take Jon Gruden's Raiders seriously?

Thirty-seven games into Jon Gruden’s second tenure as head coach, the Las Vegas Raiders have a signature win.

Las Vegas beat the reigning Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, 40-32, at Arrowhead Stadium. The game was tied 24-24 at the start of the fourth quarter, the time when Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs’ offense have been thrilling time and again. But there would be no comeback on this Sunday.

Vegas’ win ended a nearly eight-year losing streak at Arrowhead, dating to Oct. 28, 2012, and in their past two trips there, the Raiders had posted 12 total points.
