The Chiefs improved to 11-3 as quarterback Alex Smith tossed five
touchdown passes, completing 17 of 20 throws against AFC West rival
Raiders (4-10).
Smith hit running back Jamaal Charles for four of his touchdown
passes. Charles, who also scored on a one-yard plunge from
scrimmage, totaled a remarkable 195 receiving yards on eight
catches.
Kansas City, playing their first season with signal caller Smith and
head coach Andy Reid, began the campaign with nine wins in a row
before losing three straight, twice to Denver and once to San Diego.
