KANSAS CITY, Mo. (Interstat) — Patrick Mahomes threw for three touchdowns and the Kansas City Chiefs’ defense delivered a dominant shutout performance, blanking the Las Vegas Raiders 31-0 in an NFL game on Sunday, October 19, 2025, at a rain-soaked GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.

A crowd of 73,584 watched as the Chiefs improved to 4-3, while the Raiders fell to 2-5.

Mahomes was surgical, completing 26 of 35 passes for 286 yards. He connected with Rashee Rice for two touchdowns and found Hollywood Brown for another. Mahomes also added 28 yards on the ground, extending drives with his legs.

The Chiefs set the tone early, marching 92 yards on their first possession. The drive was capped by a 2-yard touchdown pass from Mahomes to Rice, giving Kansas City a 7-0 lead in the first quarter.

Kansas City broke the game open in the second quarter. Mahomes engineered another long drive, finishing it with an 8-yard scoring strike to Brown to extend the lead to 14-0. Just before halftime, Mahomes masterfully managed the clock, leading the Chiefs on a 95-yard drive that ended with his second touchdown pass to Rice, a 3-yarder with 10 seconds remaining, to take a commanding 21-0 lead into the break.

The Chiefs’ defense was relentless, sacking Raiders quarterback Geno Smith twice and allowing just 67 net passing yards. Smith finished 10 of 16 before being relieved by Kenny Pickett in the fourth quarter. The Raiders never advanced beyond the Kansas City 46-yard line.

Kansas City added to its lead in the third quarter. Isiah Pacheco punched in a 7-yard touchdown run, and Harrison Butker added a 38-yard field goal to bring the score to its final margin of 31-0.

Rice was Mahomes’ top target, catching seven passes for 42 yards and the two scores. Travis Kelce had a team-high 54 receiving yards on three catches, including a 44-yard reception. Brashard Smith contributed 81 all-purpose yards, and Xavier Worthy added 35 receiving yards.

Defensively, Trent McDuffie led the Chiefs with six tackles, while Chris Jones recorded one of the team’s two sacks. For the Raiders, linebackers Elandon Roberts and Devin White were busy, registering 18 and 16 tackles, respectively, as they were repeatedly forced to stop Kansas City’s methodical offensive drives.

The Chiefs will host Washington next Monday afternoon. The Raiders return home to face Jacksonville on November 2.
