Raiders on Sunday
-
Hunt has an reportable hamstring issue but was a full participant in practice yesterday.
Incidentally, the last guy with this Int/TD stat line to begin the season 6-0 was “Paintin’ Manning” who won the SB.
-
I am fairly confident the Chiefs will beat the raiders. Christmas Day loss is stills too fresh. I worry more about the broncos game. Total trap game with the Bills the next week. (Also I have tickets to see the chiefs v Broncos. lol)
-
Andy says DeAndre Hopkins will get some targets against THE RAIDERS. Anxious to see how this works out.
-
@stoptheflop so excited about Nuk. Hope he regains some shape of his old form. He says he’s energized, so that’s encouraging.

Like Kareem Hunt, playing for a team with a shot at the SB and a 3peat should invigorate Hopkins.

Raiders rookie cb playing with a Kermit doll in the preseason mocking Mahomes…not smart. Mahomes response, “It gets handled, when it gets handled.” Today is the day!
-
Raiders soon to be ex coach Pierce - we have the Mahomes rules (harm Mahomes if possible). Similar to the pistons Jordan rules - rough him up at every possible opportunity. Play dirty, just don’t get caught. Hope the O-line is up to the challenge!
-
Let’s look at some AFC QB stats: in 7 games Lamar Jackson 1810 passing yds, 15 TDs, 2 INTs; Burrow 1750 yds, 14 TDs, 2 INTs; and in 6 games, Mahomes 1389 yds, 6TDs, 8INTs. OUCH! I sure hope Hopkins gets some of the targets that Brown and Rice would have had but for injuries. Maybe that will help our QB

@stoptheflop what’s their record?

Yes, the Chiefs beat both teams, but I’m sure the TD/INT ratio bothers or concerns Mahomes and KC coaches. Thank goodness KC’s defense is playing so well.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Even better, what’s their head to head record this year? lol
I love how the talking heads drool over Lamar Jackson’s stats while failing to recognize that he doesn’t make winning plays. I have very little concern when the Chiefs play him.
-
@stoptheflop The defense playing so well is the reason that the Chiefs play calling has switched from 60/40 pass/run to 40/60. Strategy and personnel. The defense suffers when the offense scores quickly. Complimentary units. But they definitely need to improve red zone scoring - and I hope Nuk alleviates some of those issues.
-
Answer is they lost 2 games? Simple question
-
@dylans Lamar is so much fun to watch play but he has to start making winning plays when it matters most. In January he just collapses.
-
@kjayhawks did he attend KU?
-
Nice opening possession. Hopkins with a first down.
-
Just double Bowers and the Raiders offense will stall. He’s killing it right now
-
Starting to target Kelce more. TD
-
Having Dhop Mahomes looks like Mahomes
-
Spoke too soon now smh penalties and now a TO
-
I say it again for the folks in the back Elite defense in KC
-
Nice drive
-
Always feels good to beat Raiders
Let’s go Chiefs
-
Good win; the Raiders always play their best game against KC. Great to see Kelce have a good game. I sure hope Mahome’s ankle is OK. I had to take a break during the flag fest in the 3rd Q. Message to NFL refs: Stop throwing flags on consecutive plays over and over. That takes all the enjoyment out of the game.
-
Defense made some big plays and the offense showed signs of its old self. If they can get SS back next week they should have a good receiving core with Kelce starting to get into his groove. I really think this game put the rest of the NFL on notice. Hunt has plugged right and done the heavy lifting. I give Minshew credit he played his best game of the year this afternoon and it wasn’t enough.
