Forget my avatar as although, I am somewhat biased, i have a good feel for this team.
Here's what KC is playing for tonight.....perfect record and a chance to showcase to the nation how great they are.....
Here's what Oakland playing for tonight.....pride, a small chance to get back in the race, bill callahans job, and their last gasp.
Talent wise, KC is obviously better this year. But the fact still remains that Oakland has the returning league MVP, two first ballot hall of fame recievers, a ridiculously fast deep threat when healthy, and a versatile running back.
Edge with QB and receivers to the raiders. HUGE edge in running back and o-line to the chiefs.
BUT what will happen is that the Raiders aren't going to lie down. They are not going to sleep walk through this game. At least not right away. At home, in front of crowd under the lights, Raiders will give everything they have. Tell me Rice and Brown and Gannon don't have at least pride. Doesn't mean they win or cover, but it does mean under the lights you are going to get their best effort.
In the end, the talent of KC might find a way to overcome the Raiders. But at least for the first 30 minutes, you will see glimpses of the AFC championship team from last year.
Oakland +143 1h
