The Raiders WILL Win the AFC West here's how.....

So it hit me this morning looking at the remainder of the Raider Schedule, we are going to win the AFC West.  Going to to week 6 we are facing three home games, with our bye packaged neatly there.  The three home games coming up are Cleveland (currently 2-3, with their two wins vs. the win-less colts and dolphins) Denver (currently 1-4, with one of their loses vs the Raiders) and KC,(currently 2-3 with their two wins vs. Minnesota (1-4) and the Colts (0-5) .  Going into week 10 most would agree we should be 6-2, facing the Chargers.  I am not confident that we will sweep the Chargers but with the way they are currently playing and the strength of their opponents so far ( They have wins over Denver, KC, Minnesota and Miami, with a combined record of 4-16), I am confident we split with them if not sweep them again. 

The rest of the Schedule goes: San Diego twice (we should at least take 1 if not sweep), @Minnesota, @Miami, @KC all games we should win, and @Green Bay which is one that will be very difficult probably a loss.  For our remaining home games we have Chicago and Detroit, and I figure for us to probably split here.  

This Gives us a very good 11-5 record if we split with San Diego, and speaking of San Diego they have a monster schedule remaining: Currently at 4-1, they have away games at:  Jets, Jacksonville, Chicago, Detroit, KC and at the Big O in Oaktown.  They will be fortunate to split 3-3 here, very fortunate....and then their home games: Denver Green Bay, Buffalo, Baltimore and Oakland, again they are very lucky to Split here I have them going 2-3 at best.  So I have the Chargers going 10-6 at best and more likely 9-7 or worse.  IT'S TIME TO TAKE BACK OUR RIGHTFUL PLACES' AS DIVISION CHAMPIONS OF THE AFC WEST!!! GO RAIDERS!!
