Chiefs vs Raiders--First place implications

In the "when Hell freezes over category" for the 2010 season.... :wacko:

 

 

But to be serious, I (and others) here thought Oakland might be the sleeper in this division, and the way they are running the ball puts them squarely in the mix. This could be a real good, old fashioned smash-mouth game.

 

I don't think the Chiefs have a prayer in this game though. Oakland is playing so well right now, and Haley's decision making has been horrible lately.

 

I can see Oakland 31-17.

Should be a hard fought game..I expect the team with the best cardiovascular endurance to come on top

I don't have a dog in that fight, I don't really give a flip about either team. But it used to be one of the most fun rivalries to watch. Great games. I'd love to see that return.

I believe the Chefs win the division.....finally!

 

Your D is better then you think.

 

Never felt Dick was a fair weather fan. :wacko:

There's a very good chance Asomugha will be out with a high ankle sprain. If this is the case Bowe could run wild and Huff will see time at CB with Branch/Mitchell playing Safety... not really an ideal situation for Raider fans.

 

While I really like the way the Raiders have played, I don't know if they have the run defense to keep the Chiefs in check. It's being called the biggest game since their last Superbowl for the Raiders, and I couldn't agree more: The Broncos were a "fluke," the Seahawks were a coincidence, the Chiefs will be for legitimacy.

I would humbly disagree on the fair weather fan thing. I'm about as realistic homer as there is.

 

This Chiefs team is somewhat of a smoke and mirrors team. While they have a good running game, it has feasted on a weak schedule. And the defense is not really as good as people think. We are terrible against the pass, and we still really cannot get great pressure on the QB. Plus we haven't seen a really great running team yet like Oakland.

 

Are the Chiefs improved? Yeah. But ready to win the division? I don't know.
