In what will go down as one of the more comical moments in the storied history of the Chiefs/Raiders rivalry, the Raiders decided to gather before Sunday’s game and dance around on the Arrowhead Stadium midfield logo.
The Chiefs went on to win 48-9 in the most decisive win in the rivalry’s history as Kansas City moved to 9-4 on the season. The Chiefs won both games this season by a combined 89-22 and Twitter’s reaction to this occurrence is worth the price of admission alone.
Patrick Mahomes on the Raiders’ standing on the Chiefs logo pregame: You don’t want people coming into your stadium and disrespecting what you’ve built.

The pregame shenanigans by the Raiders will go down as one of the dumbest moments in this rivalry. Stomp on your opponents logo at midfield while they’re in the locker room, then come out and get SMACKED from literally the first play and totally beat down all game. 48-9 final

Tyrann Mathieu on the Raiders’ decision to do their pregame routine on the Chiefs logo: “It doesn’t really move me. I don’t think champions act in that manner. It doesn’t even matter.”

The @raiders are unofficially the first team to ever gather on an opponent’s midfield logo pregame and then trail 28-0 about 21 game minutes later. pic.twitter.com/LQzoFl5Kny

You have to feel like you’re the better team if you’re going to try this move, don’t do this after you’ve been beat down at your own home thinking things will change at our place! https://t.co/zBqwcSwbVA
