Antonio Pierce, the Las Vegas Raiders head coach who took the troubled Raiders team from Josh McDaniels, has planned a blueprint to stop the Kansas City Chiefs. They have an antidote against the Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

In the latest episode of Maxx Crosby‘s podcast, the head coach who already added some momentum to the Raiders after taking charge from McDaniels, emphasized that they were the last team to stop the Cheifs. Mahomes had a poor performance in the game. He was subjected to an interception and even a pick-six. The Raiders played two good games against the Chiefs. In the first game, the Raiders took a 14-point lead but later choked in the next quarters. But in the next game, the Raiders did not make the same mistake and emerged victorious.

He said on Maxx Crosby’s The Rush podcast:

You know what, it's motivation. Guess who's the last [team] to beat them, though. Who's the last [team] to beat the Chiefs? These dudes. They did that. So it's OK. It's cool. Like I told them, we'll run it back. We'll see them again. They gotta see us, we gotta see them. And we've already given the recipe of how to do it. 
Antonio Pierce said

Patrick Mahomes has a great record against the Las Vegas Raiders, he has a 10-2 record. In addition, the quarterback also was integral in winning eight straight divisional titles. The quarterback also won three championships with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Antonio Pierce cited an example from NBA

Pierce acknowledged the dominance of Patrick Mahomes in the league. But he is hopeful that his team will be able to beat the Chiefs. He believed that the Raiders would dethrone the Chiefs like other opponent teams did against the Detroit Pistons during the Michael Jordan era.

Pierce said:

We've got the Jordan rules and what I'm calling from now on as long as I'm here, the Patrick Mahomes rules. So you remember when Jordan was going through it with the Pistons, all those guys in the '80s before he became Michael Jordan, Air Jordan, the Pistons used to whoop his ass. Any time he came to the hole? Elbows, feeling him, love taps. We touched him. We're in the head, mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, I'm touching you. So, I showed those guys Jordan getting his ass whooped.
