Las Vegas Raiders vs. Kansas City Chiefs History

The Chiefs vs. Raiders rivalry is considered one of the NFL’s most intense rivalries. The two teams have met more than 148 times in their bitter history and have played at least twice annually since the 1960 season.

The two teams were both in the American Football League when the league was established in 1960, and were both in the AFC West following the 1970 AFL-NFL merger.

The Chiefs were originally known as the Dallas Texans, and the first game between the two teams was a 34-16 win over the Texans. Later that season, the Raiders beat the Texans 20-19.

The Texans relocated to Kansas City following the 1962 season and were renamed the Kansas City Chiefs.

The early rivalry saw each team competing for Super Bowl berths, with the Chiefs playing in the first Super Bowl in 1966. In 1968, the Chiefs and Raiders battled in the AFL Championship, with the Raiders winning 41-6 to reach the Super Bowl. The Chiefs got revenge the following season with a 17-7 win over the Raiders in the AFL Championship and went on to beat the Minnesota Vikings in the Super Bowl.

The ’70s and ’80s saw much of the rivalry controlled by the Raiders as they became one of the premiere franchises in the NFL and were annually competing for Super Bowl championships. But, beginning in the ’90s, the Chiefs have had the upper hand, including a dominant 18-2 record during the ’90s.

From 2003–2007, the Chiefs had a nine-game winning streak against the Raiders before the Raiders finally snapped the streak with a 20-17 win over the Chiefs in their last battle of the 2007 season.

From the 2013 season to the conclusion of the 2022 season, the Chiefs have a 17-3 record, including a five-game winning streak dating back to the 2020 season.
