Thursday Night Football... Raiders @ Chiefs

[Destructor D]

Huge game, especially since KC won big at Oakland a few weeks ago like 26-10 if memory serves me correct.

Line opens KC -3 -120 and wonder if some of this is due to fact KC is alarming 1-7 ATS at home last 8, but 7-1 SU??? This is almost impossible to go 7-1 SU and 1-7 ATS, but this is accurate. Also, KC was -2 at Oakland closing line earlier this year so logic would say KC -5 minimum. However, Raiders also play better on the road.

Going to be bitter cold which might help KC IMO. Oakland depends on vertical passing game. Think line goes up honestly.

Carr is very special.

Carr is decent, but 15 degree actual temp, we will see. Not that KC is used to the temps either, but offense is built better for cold weather. California kids might freeze to death honestly. I mean frost biting cold! High 20 low 8 right now.

Carr is soft. Nobody has put any pressure on him. The only reason why he's any good is their O line. Everyone keeps talking about Carr but not the line. Best line in football next to boys. Raiders fold like a cheap deck of cards.

I see people say this all the time. Calif/FLor teams will get killed in the cold. And they never do. Miami, Raiders, Chargers.

I watch a lot of Mountain West games. Everyone was saying San Diego St would go to Wyoming on Sat night and get beat in the bitter cold. None of those kids on SDS had long sleeves on and they beat Wyoming on their home field.

Raiders might get beat, but they are playing like a team of destiny. Lot's of chemistry. Great O line, Great QB, great RBs, Mack is playing like an MVP. And they're winning on the road. A lot.....I wouldn't bet against them right now.
