And Spags stoned both of those guys.
Not saying that Jacobs won't get some yards, but I doubt Spags will just forget Jacobs exists and let him run amok. Spags will bring something new, especially in the second half, and keep Jacobs contained.
The plan is always to get a double digit lead and force Carr is throw a lot under pressure. Make Carr have to carry the Raiders offense. And defense for that matter. If they go 3-and-out a few times in the second half, the Chiefs win going away.

Oh, I think all the right people are. In particular, I'd bet real money that Tyrann, Clark, and Jones on the D are pretty worked up; they're going to have something to prove on Sunday.
Offensively, I fully expect to see Andy, Mahomes, Tyreek, Kelce, and Watkins to go off. Would not be surprised at all if we have three receivers go 100 yds and at least a TD each. And a generous dose of wild "Andy" plays to make that happen.
Andy is going to want to make a clear statement that he's the better coach and OC, and that it's not terribly close. [Reply]

"Bus gate ... "
"Gruden can bring the Raiders back ... be the face of this year"
Eisen even talking about how the winless Raiders beat the 7-3 Chiefs in 2014.
Andy off a bye week. Bus gate. Prime time. [Reply]

I hope not he is still young. I thought he was on the Covid list but they listed him not practicing today because of his back. I was hoping he would ready after the bye week. [Reply]

Back issues tend to not go away, if this persists we may have to look into a new RT going forward. [Reply]
Raiders Rushing 4 and dropping 7 was the key to the beating us. We must be able to run against a defense that drops 7. Did Schwartz play in the Raiders' game? We can't let Mahomes get harassed by a 4-man rush. The Raiders rarely blitzed us and they still sacked Mahomes 3 times and pressured him a whopping (stat by PFF)22 times. [Reply]
