First Half Highlights Against The Kansas City Chiefs

The Oakland Raiders concluded the 2015 regular season Sunday afternoon, taking on the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium.

At the half, the Chiefs lead 14-10.

Here are the highlights from the first half.

The Raiders won the toss, and per usual, deferred to the second half, and on the opening kickoff Sebastian Janikowski booted the ball deep into the end zone and did not allow a return.

After falling behind 7-0 early in the first quarter, quarterback Derek Carr threw a short pass to fullback Jamize Olawale who rumbled down the field for a gain of 14, resulting in a Raiders first down.

The Chiefs added another touchdown to their early lead, extending it to 14-0, but on the ensuing kickoff, Taiwan Jones set a career long with a 71-yard kickoff return into Chiefs territory. 

On the next play from scrimmage, Carr bought himself time in the pocket and then connected with rookie tight end Clive Walford for a gain of 19 yards.

The drive stalled for the Raiders, but Janikowski connected on a 29-yard field goal to put the Silver and Black on the board, making the score 14-3 with 13:40 left in the first half.

With just under 9:00 left in the half, the Raiders forced the first Chiefs punt of the afternoon when Alex Smith couldn't scramble and convert a 3rd and 14.

The Raiders forced a rare Alex Smith interception with 6:20 left in the half, as TJ Carrie intercepted Smith's pass that was intended for Albert Wilson.

With 3:27 left before the half, Smith threw another interception, this one to David Amerson who returned it to the end zone for six points. Janikowski added the PAT to make it 14-10 in favor of the Chiefs.
