Chiefs vs. Raiders Preview

The Kansas City Chiefs (7-3) are facing off against a terrible Oakland Raiders team (0-10). The Raiders have had a horrendous season with the worst start in franchise history. The loss against the  Chargers handed the Raiders their 16th straight loss. This team really needs more than an early first round pick if they want to start winning games. Anyways, they are matched up with a red hot Kansas City Chiefs team who are coming off their 5th straight win. After starting the year 0-2 they have bounced back to lose only one game since then. The Chiefs have one of, if not the best, pass rushing defenses in the league. With a big bodied Dontari Poe charging the QB and a solid linebacker corps, the Chiefs defense is nearly unstoppable. They don’t only have defense, the Chiefs have a decently good offense too. Alex Smith has been playing up to par, and Jamaal Charles is carrying the team. Charles has 7 TDs in the last 5 games, and has been one of the best RB in the league as of late. So to beat this hot Chiefs team, the Raiders will have to put on more than just their ‘A’ game.
