the chiefs withstand a late comeback to beat the oakland raiders in another thriller on monday night 17-10 to go to 7-0, the longest any chiefs team has gone with a winning streak to start the season. players of the week:

• offensive: RB priest holmes - 123 yards rushing and 50 more receiving, plus one touchdown.
• defensive: MLB shawn barber - 2 sacks of raider QB rich gannon, and agitated in the backfield all night.
• special teams: WR marc boerigter - alertly abandoned his punt coverage lane to fall on a muffed punt at the raider 10 yard line in the fourth quarter, which set up holmes’ touchdown.

the buffalo bills on sunday night will be at arrowhead. the bills sport a vastly improved defense but can’t seem to protect QB drew bledsoe. chiefs win in another close one, 27-24.
