LETS TALK - Chiefs vs Raiders

Oakland Raider running back Latavius Murray will be a non factor tomorrow night. This man born and raised in Florida, went to college in Florida and has played in pro career in the Bay Area.. 

Division game for 1st place...weather is a non-factor for both teams. These are grown men, not little ladies crying cause the weather is below ZERO. 

Call me crazy but i think Raiders score 13 points at most and Chiefs will cruise.

this is gonna be a ripper of a game.  Possibly game of the week, but there are a few other big ones out there( seems like 3for3 big prime time this week.),  with the early hook on lol 3' I think I'll be taking the points.  I hear a lot of talk about how good kc is, how fortunate oak has been, how cold it's gonna be, how unstoppable kc is at home in dec, or how good they are against Carr, revenge game, 3 games in 10 day, blah blah blah.   Huge game Thursday night.   To say one team will dominate the other is foolish.  This one will be decided by a score.  These are all professonal athletes that will be ready.  This December record at arrowhead only is relavent depending on the situation at that time of year.  that dome team that wasn't really used to the cold ( Indy ) came to kc in late December a few times in the last decade and won.  Sure they have beaten chargers and raiders in the last couple years in December, but teams were playing for different things then.  Favourable calls go both ways, because when I watched the game 10 days ago against den, I thought maybe Chiefs got a little lucky yo score at the very end of regulation, and last week in Atlanta good play at the end of the game, but have to admit alittle lucky on the freak play to pick the 2 point conversation and return it for the win.  I guess if your a Chiefs fan, these games ended like they should have.  Needless to say, I'm not confident enough to pick a side, but this cold weather game at arrowhead should be low scoring close affair.   All the best, this one is for the division.  I'm on Oakland +3.5.  See you at the window. Peace 

Someone just tell Alex Smith to watch out for #52 in silver and black. I hear he's a real game changer 

Yessir just wait and watch! Hopefully he won't be to cold 

haha let the trash talk begin. the rivalry has spilled into Covers , getting a little intense in here

A closely matched game like this, when everyone's talking about Derek Carr and Justin Houston and Oak's offense and KC's defense and all the obvious stuff, the deciding factor tends to be something that nobody was talking about pregame. I see that KC is ranked 19th in run D and Oak is 7th in Run O (footballoutsiders).  KC 27th rush yards allowed overall.  How good is a defense that allows that much rushing?  Why can't Oakland run well in this game?  This OL could very well do some mauling here.  They're also #1 is pass protection..

i think Oakland can the run thr ball, mentioned it several posts back. they didnt have Latavius Murray last meeting. i think he can make some positive runs here cuz KC cant stop the pass and he'll get some running room.  theres a reason why the Raiders got Osemele, start running the ball. i think Raiders O-line is going to handle KC's front for the most part.. they only allowed 1 sack last 3 games so Carr will get just enough time to throw

I keep getting my behind kicked by the Chiefs.

Chief fans 12 hours from now -----------> 

I look at it like this. The Chiefs can pretty much score at will on the Raiders especially at home. Mack can be neutralized by the Chiefs dink and dunk offense. Hill has turned into a real threat. They have been extra cautious with Maclin and he is 100%. Kelce should be able to abuse the middle of the field. I actually think the Chiefs can and will score on nearly every drive.

That to me is the difference. Like I told my friend who is a diehard raiders fan. My opinion on them is they fuck around too much. They remind me a little of the 2014 colts. They often go down early in the games and Carr brings them back. The only difference is this is a tough environment to be in. It's going to be hard to play that game on the road in the cold where Carr 100% will be effected throwing deep.

This isnt Tampa, Tennessee, or even Baltimore. Chiefs 31-23

Ohhhh. Just 4 hours away,  huge game biggest Thursday night game thus season for sure.  Sharp line for sure specially now at 3, happy with +3.5.  This isn't week 6 coming off a bye, this is for the division.  Sure the cold will help the home team, but kc has yet to dominate anyone at home this year except jets early, hardly beat jags, and the lose to a warm TB team.  

already have raiders teased +9.5 with Monday night Colts....waiting for 2nd half to pound the Raiders 

Ok, let's talk, I NEVER saw a NFL game in my life, my football is your soccer, BUT Raiders seems way cooler, so raiders +3,5! GL

this game will be close...everyone best believe it

Chief fans in 6 hours---------------> 

Cooper didnt have full control of the ball, just sayin....
