The NFL kicked off its Black Friday experiment in 2023 with the New York Jets hosting the Miami Dolphins at MetLife Stadium.

The Chiefs-Raiders matchup is one of several exciting games lined up for Week 13. Here’s the full schedule (all times in ET):
Friday, Nov. 29 (Black Friday):
Sunday, Dec. 1:
Monday, Dec. 2:
The Chiefs and Raiders meet again after last season’s shocking Christmas Day upset. The defending Super Bowl champs, coming off a narrow win against the Panthers, will aim to avoid another holiday letdown.
Despite the Raiders’ struggles, defensive star Maxx Crosby could be a problem for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs’ offense. With Raiders QB Gardner Minshew out for the season, backup Aidan O’Connell will take over under center. The Raiders will need defensive magic, like their two touchdowns in last year’s upset, to stand a chance.
The Chiefs, heavy favorites, get a boost with RB Isiah Pacheco’s return. Mahomes, frustrated with close games, will be eager for a dominant win. If he gets his way, it could be a long day for the Raiders.
