Brock Bowers TD cuts Chiefs lead to 16-10 in the third quarter

The Raiders are back within one score late in the third quarter of Friday’s road game against the Chiefs.

Quarterback Aidan O’Connell floated a pass to Brock Bowers for a 33-yard score with 1:40 to play in the third quarter. Daniel Carlson’s extra point cut the Chiefs’ lead to 16-10.

The Raiders took over at the Chiefs’ 26-yard line thanks to a 69-yard kickoff return by Ameer Abdullah and then moved back due to their seventh penalty of the afternoon.

Bowers has six catches for 94 yards on the day and O’Connell is 12 of 20 for 205 yards overall.

The Chiefs moved the ball quite well on their first two possessions of the second half. However, the running game has been ineffective and the Raiders pass defense in the red zone has tightened up, leading to two Matthew Wright field goals that extended the lead to 13 points instead of putting the game away.
