    Week 7 TNF: Kansas City Chiefs (5-1) at Oakland Raiders (2-4)

    We got ourselves a good matchup tonight! The Chiefs look to bury the Raiders in the AFC West before the weekend even starts. 2-5... I think only an early-mid 2000s Jets team and a semi-recent Chiefs team have pulled off the feat of starting so poorly and then making the playoffs.

    Chiefs have won their last 12 division games. That’s nuts in a division that was really good last year. Sounds like Tyreek Hill will be good to go in this one after taking a shot to the head last week against PIT.

    Are the Raiders bad on offense or just going through a rough spell? It’s been 4 or so weeks now... who are you Oakland? Amari Cooper can’t catch, Marshawn Lynch can’t run, and Derek Carr can’t pass. It’s ugly all over for the silver & black.

    But nothing can kickstart a run like a big division win over the pack leader. I think the Raiders correct their course at least for the time being and get back in the W column with a win tonight. 23-16 Oakland.

    Wouldn't be at all surprised to see Bowman helping them shore up the run D and their secondary make some plays with Smith under pressure all night.

    Comes down to the Raider offense executing and the Chiefs defense stopping the run.

    Go Chiefs (...at least until the Raiders move here...), but division games are always tough.

      NaVorro Bowman not only is starting tonight. He's wearing in-helmet speaker, relaying the play calls he just learned to teammates in huddle.

        Alex is a pretty decent QB with proper coaching.

          That'll be a $30,387 fine for Lynch. Maybe more given the circumstances.

          Edit: looks like another $6k for coming onto the field to fight.

            Instant regret lol. The OL had that one under control, as they should have after Carr took a bit of a cheap shot from Peters.

              Lynch was seen leaving the locker room in street clothes, left the stadium.

                I really don't get what's up with the Raiders this year...expected more. I am loving what Alex Smith is doing though. I say it every year, but I don't know if anyone not named Bill Belichick gets more out of their team year in and year out than Andy Reid.

                  Classic Lynch...probably going on a skittles run.

                      Should be another fine from the team for doing that. Sit in the what I am sure is the luxurious players lounge. Grab a Coke and a hot dog. Your team is on the field.

                      Almost seems like the Chiefs secondary cannot keep from penalties.

                        That was a nice long TD after falling victim to something similar last week.

                          That's not a TD...he's down at the 1.
