Game Thread: Oakland Raiders @ Kansas City Chiefs

076_tiny by saint on

This is as much of a second week MUST win as there is.

The Chiefs were picked to finish last in the AFC West, and for good reason, so, of the Raiders do not come out and beat them then this season has the look of a very long one. On the other hand, if they do win today, you may see the turmoil that began this week turn into cohesion between Lane and Rob. One can only hope.

The key will be how many turnovers we can force and how many three and outs we can achieve. If the defense can allow our offense to operate the way they are built to operate, then this could be a huge margin of victory for the boys in Silver and Black. Can you believe that Vegas has us as 3 1/2 point underdawgs? I'm taking the money line, 100 to win 165.

Prediction: Raiders 35 Chiefs 10

I'll add more in a sec, but I want to get this up and am dealing with a beach signal at the moment.

Russell making these draw plays here too for short yardage. He did it last year on a 4th down right b4 the fumble.

I wondered that too

Ryan’s the guy who would definitely react to being publicly criticized. Kudos to Kiff if so.

by Raybin on Sep 14, 2008 10:36 AM PDT to parent up   0 recs

I think

Kiffn is tired of being diplomatic in the organization to get things done because it simply doesn’t work. Since the media is against us, why not use it for us?

That is why we need to force 3 and outs against this team:
