Since Allegiant Stadium opened in 2017, the Las Vegas Raiders have posted just one winning season and finished last in the AFC West three times. Conversely, the Kansas City Chiefs have been the most successful franchise in the NFL during the same span and have dominated the division. The recent disparity between these two franchises is best illustrated through an eye-opening statistic.

If KC defeats the Silver and Black this Sunday, then Andy Reid will become the winningest head coach in Allegiant Stadium history, per The 33rd Team's Ari Meirov. The all-time great currently sits in a tie with ex-Raiders HCs Josh McDaniels and Antonio Pierce for the top spot. A seventh victory on 3333 Al Davis Way would give Big Red distinct bragging rights. Who says you can't win big in Vegas?

The Raiders have beaten a Patrick Mahomes-led Chiefs squad just once since 2021, and that came shortly before Kansas City won its second straight Super Bowl. Reid oversees a tight operation, and he especially knows how to navigate the AFC's bottom-tier. However, Las Vegas looks like a different team through the first three weeks of this season.

Klint Kubiak is igniting the offense, and the defense has been suffocating opponents. If the first-year head coach continues to foster this team's growth, then he will set the Allegiant Stadium record in due time. Andy Reid may make him wait a while, though. The Chiefs can obtain sole possession of first place with a road victory. But Raider pride should be at full force.

Is KC truly back? Is Vegas for real? Perhaps fans will receive more clarity on these questions after these two undefeated squads collide in Week 4. Opening kickoff is set for 4:25 p.m. ET.
