Top stats to know: Raiders get 1st win

The streak is over.

The Oakland Raiders snapped their 16-game losing streak with a 24-20 win over a Kansas City Chiefs team that entered with a five-game winning streak.

Murray accomplishes a first

An early spark for the Raiders was a 90-yard touchdown run by Latavius Murray. It was the fourth-longest touchdown run in Raiders history, the longest by a Raiders running back since Bo Jackson had a 92-yarder against the Cincinnati Bengals in 1989.

Longest Losing Streaks
Since NFL-AFL Merger

The Raiders had 114 rushing yards to that point, matching their most in any game this season. They finished the game with 179 yards, an average of 6.0 per carry.

Murray finished with 112 yards on four rushes. The Elias Sports Bureau noted that broke the "record" for most rushing yards in a game by a player with fewer than five rushes. The previous mark of 109 was set by Essex Johnson in 1971.

Murray has led the Raiders in rushing in each of the past two games.

He's had four carries each week (43 rush yards last week, 112 Thursday night).

The Chiefs allowed two rushing touchdowns in this game. They entered the game having allowed none all season. The Raiders entered with an NFL-low two rushing touchdowns all season.

Chiefs couldn't connect downfield

Despite trailing for most of the game, Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith did not attempt a pass more than 20 yards downfield.

Smith had three completions of more than 20 yards in the Chiefs' first two games this season. Smith has one such completion in Kansas City's past nine games.

Chiefs' schedule gets tougher

The Chiefs had a chance for a gimme win and couldn't take advantage. Their remaining opponents have a combined .577 winning percentage. Theirs is the fourth-toughest remaining strength of schedule, topped only by the Seattle Seahawks (.683), San Diego Chargers (.623) and Atlanta Falcons (.589).

The Chiefs' two remaining road games are against the 9-1 Arizona Cardinals and 7-4 Pittsburgh Steelers.

Elias Sports Bureau stat of the night: Chiefs can't beat winless teams

Amazingly, the Chiefs fell to 1-4 all-time against teams with a record of 0-10 or worse. They've lost the past four such games they've played, with the other three coming against the 0-11 Chargers in 1975, the 0-10 Oilers in 1984 and the 0-11 Chargers in 2000.
