## Analysis
The Las Vegas Raiders will be without several key players for their Week 13 Black Friday matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Quarterback Derek Carr, running back Josh Jacobs, and wide receiver Hunter Renfrow are all out with injuries. Tight end Darren Waller, offensive tackle Kolton Miller, and guard Denzelle Good are also out.
The Raiders will be starting backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham, who has never started an NFL game. Running back Zamir White is expected to take over the lead role in the backfield, with Ameer Abdullah and Kenyan Drake also available. Wide receiver Davante Adams and tight end Foster Moreau will be Stidham’s primary targets.
The Chiefs will also be without some key players, including running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire, wide receiver Mecole Hardman, and tight end Jody Fortson. Offensive tackle Lucas Niang, guard Joe Thuney, and defensive tackle Chris Jones are also out.
The Chiefs will be starting backup running back Jerick McKinnon, who has 122 rushing yards and two touchdowns this season. Wide receiver Justin Watson and tight end Noah Gray are expected to see increased roles in the offense.
## Impact on the Game
The injuries to Carr, Jacobs, and Renfrow are a major blow to the Raiders’ offense. Stidham is an unproven quarterback, and the Raiders will need him to play well if they want to have a chance to win. The Chiefs’ defense is ranked fourth in the NFL, so Stidham will have his work cut out for him.
The injuries to Edwards-Helaire and Hardman are also significant for the Chiefs. McKinnon is a capable running back, but he is not as explosive as Edwards-Helaire. Watson and Gray are both solid receivers, but they are not as dynamic as Hardman.
The Chiefs’ defense will also be tested by the Raiders’ offense, which is led by Adams and Moreau. Adams is one of the best receivers in the NFL, and Moreau is a rising star.
The Chiefs are favored by 9.5 points in this game, but the Raiders could be a threat to upset them if Stidham plays well and the defense can force some turnovers.
