And our offense, when healthy, is MUCH better than theirs. And obviously are defense is better. Add special teams to that as well.
As long as the Chiefs don't 'play down to their opponent', this won't be a close game.
I can recognize the Faid are better this year, while also recognizing they're not in KC's class.
Yeah Raiders are definitely headed in the right direction but they are not at the Steeler, Chiefs, Packers etc level yet. They caught Chiefs slipping last time but that won't happen again. [Reply]

The Raiders defense is ass. Even though they've performed well over the last 3 weeks it's fools gold. I suspect they'd play much better under a different defensive coordinator.
Unfortunately for Carr he's always played with a sorry defense but he has been playing extremely well this year. He'd def have a better career winning record with a middle of the pack defense.
The pressure is all on the Chiefs this week as no one expects the Raiders to win even after they beat them in week 5. It doesn't help that their defense doesn't get to practice.
One things for sure. There are a lot more threads and posts about the Raiders this time around. [Reply]
Have the Raiders activated their covid guys yet? The only one I've seen thus far is Joyner, but there are still six or seven of their defenders who haven't been cleared yet from what I can tell. [Reply]
