The Kansas City Chiefs clinched a playoff berth for the 10th consecutive season with a 19-17 win against the Las Vegas Raiders on Friday. The game was decided in the final seconds when Chiefs linebacker Nick Bolton recovered a Raiders fumble at the Kansas City 32-yard line.

Kansas City held a 16-3 lead late in the third quarter, but the Raiders responded with back-to-back touchdowns to take a 17-16 lead. A 32-yard field goal from Chiefs kicker Matthew Wright put Kansas City back in front, setting up the dramatic finish.

The Chiefs are now 11-1 and maintain their position atop the AFC standings. They can secure their ninth consecutive AFC West title with a victory against the Los Angeles Chargers on December 8 at Arrowhead Stadium.

Patrick Mahomes threw for 298 yards and one touchdown, surpassing Len Dawson for the most passing touchdowns in franchise history. Defensive tackle Chris Jones contributed two sacks in the win.

The Raiders, now 2-10, extended their losing streak to eight games. They had a chance to win with seconds remaining but lost possession on a botched snap.

Kansas City will have a break before their next game against the Chargers.
