Kyle Boller? - UGH!!!!!!! -

Stick Terelle Pryor in there - he can't possibly be any worse of a choice. Or the punter Shane Lechler - he looked pretty good throwing that touchdown......

As long as Boller just dumps it out and/or hands it off and doesn't try to do anything stupid - Like, let's say, run with it and fumble - TWICE!!!! Then I'll take the Raidaaahhhs...

But, that 3.5 still scares me - might try to get it under a field goal so when the game is tied at 10-10 and Janikowski has to kick a 78 yard field goal to win it, I can breathe a little easier.........

Kassell over past two games has thrown 5tds to 0 picks.... on the other hand the raiders are in big trouble at the quarterback situation. And, besides that overtime game in november of 2010, the Raiders havn't covered against KC at home since 2005 I believe, underdog 8-0 ats last 8, KC 7-1 ats last 8 at oakland, KC coming off the bye week. I know trends about bye week didnt hold up for St louis or Miami, it could hold up here though.

Pick.... KC +4.0

gotta agree.  Both teams suck.  Oakland probably got FLEECED in the cincy trade for Carson Palmer.  Oakland should get better in the next few years due to that old senile buzzard Al Davis closing his wretched eyes for the last time.  Al Davis made Jerry Jones look like Robert Kraft or (your favorite owner here).  Personally,  I'm leaning towards KC +3.5 and the Under

You a freaking moron I'm glad your dumb ass is on the other side of this one if you think the Chiefs are going to come into the black hole with that person Castle then your as dumb as you look and sound Al Davis passing pretty much guaranteed inspired football by my Raiders I don't care if we start Prior KC sucks ass we owned them last year Mcfadden gonna shit on these boys hell I wouldn't doubt we see Prior take a few snaps in this one Raiders by DD.. #GODBLESSTHEDEAD #JUSTWINBABY

Hmmmm......... Carson Palmer you say? I guess the Raiders are pushing their chips all in on this season. They figure they have enough talent on both sides of the ball to go deep into the playoffs.

I like this move, Palmer was born in Fresno and went to USC - so he's a California guy, and I think the Raider Nation loves that. Also a Heisman winner and he's gone to 2 Pro Bowls. Plus, he's a HELLLLLLLLLL of a lot better choice than Boller........

You can tell Al Davis is definitely gone, because this was actually a good trade for the Raiders! HA!!!!!! Just kidding Al - R.I.P. - - see DDDevin - that's how you do it............

Line has already moved up to 4 - - I see it going even higher once people hear the news

Good Luck everybody............

You mean the "system" of handing it off/dumping it off to D-Mac and Michael Bush? Yeah - I think he can learn that, unlike Boller who can't........

"Ground & Pound" take the Raiders, take the under 43................

     Was it Carson Palmer that sucked or were the Bungles just God awful. The Raiders are on a mission this season. I wouldn't be a bit surprised that the team has dedicated this year in memory of Mr. Al Davis, their icon. If I was the Chiefs, I'd call in the game ,forfeit, and don't bother to show up! But then again, please show up ,so I can cover.

OAKLAND  - 4 (Major Wager!!)

 (Just love the Janikowski sarcasm here!)

over.....19 vs 28 defenses.....palmer will acclimate fine with hugh coaching....they have been on the same team since college ball...they will be on the same page shortly ...bye week next week is great timing though!

Wow Sharp. . . Never expected to see you on the NFL section.  Early lean KC as well

well, u have me tagged right.  I'm a moron for dare doubting an oakland team that has lost not 1, but their top 2 starters.  As u probably know by now not only is Jason cambell obviously not playing....but neither is Carson Palmer.  So......good luck hanging ur hat on the Kyle Boller and T Pryor show.  I'm not saying that Oakland won't win.  I'm sure they will.  But the objective isn't so much for KC to win....but cover a +3.5 point spread.       I'm still feeling pretty good about that.

Palmer is a game time decision it's not certain that he will or won't start  so please don't jump the gun and give people bad or inaccurate information. I called you a Moron mainly because you bad mouthed a dead man, not only a dead man but a football icon that has done more for football than your whole family tree. I really could care less who the QB is tell you the truth Boller, Prior, Palmer will carry the Raiders to easy victory and cover the Chiefs plain out suck balls and Raider Nation is on the rise. Players are buying into the system and it's showing and are you seriously telling me your going to put your money on the Chiefs? Have you seen them play this season? They suck if it wasn't for the fact there last two games were against two of the sorriest teams in the league they'd be 0-5

Smart money is on the Raiders you keep fading the worse teams in the league and let me know how that works for you bruh. You'll be the one explaining to the kids why Santa aint coming this year lol

I must have been drunk or something... LOL.  Thought I'd get some feed back... there's a reason I don't do NFL... I suck at it!  I did like KC until Palmer came in, so I'm not playing it now.... I usually only play 1, 2, or 3 games on Sunday just for the action.  But don't tell anyone... SHARP
