46. Chiefs dominate Raiders under Marty Schottenheimer

Kansas City was mostly dominated by the Oakland and Los Angeles Raiders for the better part of the 1970s and 80s. It was a one-sided rivalry, and then Marty Schottenheimer came to town. From the moment the Chiefs hired Schottenheimer, the Raiders were almost guaranteed to lose twice against the red and yellow. From 1989 through the end of the 1998 season, Kansas City went 18-3 against the Raiders, including a 1991 Wild Card win over Los Angeles, Kansas City’s first postseason win since Super Bowl IV.

There were plenty of signature wins throughout this dominance, including Kansas City’s 1994 win over Los Angeles in Week 18. The Chiefs needed to win in order to make the playoffs in Joe Montana’s final year, and was able to get the job done. The following year, James Hasty returned an interception for a touchdown in overtime, beating Oakland at Arrowhead in Week 3. There was also the seven-sack game for Derrick Thomas, and in 1997, when Andre Rison caught a Hail Mary in Oakland ton win in the final seconds in primetime.
