The Kansas City Chiefs fell to the Pittsburgh Steelers for their first loss of the season on Sunday afternoon, but still remain atop the AFC West.

Here's a look at how the rest of the division fared last weekend.

Week 6 Results:Lost vs. Los Angeles Chargers, 17-16

The Raiders dropped their fourth straight game on Sunday as Chargers' kicker Nick Novak connected on a game-winning, 32-yard field goal as time expired.

Raiders' quarterback Derek Carr, who was back on the field after missing a week of action with a back injury, struggled in his return, throwing for just 171 yards and two interceptions.

Despite Carr's struggles, the Raiders were still in a position to win, scoring a go-ahead touchdown midway through the fourth quarter. Oakland missed the extra point, however, only going up two points and leaving the door open for Los Angeles, who took advantage.

Oakland's four-game losing streak is their longest since losing 10 straight games in 2014.

Rivers completed two passes for 57 yards, moving the Chargers in position for the game-winner.
