I think this is the year KC wins a playoff game. Really looked great. Need to get the ball to Maclin more, but I think that's coming.
No other AFC team looked better on Sunday.
Raiders looked really, really bad plus had injuries. Not good.

I have a friend who's a Raiders season ticket holder and got to see the game with him. Hated to see the injury to your safety. I missed what happened to Carr, but I hate to see any of these players get injured given how hard it is to make it to the top of their vocation and get a starting job in the NFL.
I think your team is picking up pretty good players but it's going to take a little time for the coaches and the players to get on the same page. The defense was getting beat by the same plays over and over, but it didn't look like the Raiders' players were getting beat so much as it looked like the match-ups were unfavorable, with 3 Bengals taking on 2 Raiders at the point of attack.
I think the Raiders will probably about 5 games this year and win more next year. It will be fun to see the two Raiders-Chiefs games this year. I saw my beloved Chiefs get beat in that rainstorm last year in Oakland and I also say the Chiefs beat the Raiders at Arrowhead in 1975, so I know that either team can beat the other on any given day.
Good luck the rest of the way, this year!
