Raiders Scalped by Chiefs: 27 -23
Ohhh the pain of it all. Ok, enough whining. We lost, to a good team no doubt. This all went pretty even throuhout, but K.C. came up the victors. The Raiders had this game. All they had to do was hold the Chiefs down for two minutes. TWO FREAKIN MINUTES. Then game over and the Silver & Black go to .500, but for some reason due to the powers that be, that was not to happen. K.C. walked down the field and had 'TIE' in mind. Possibly overtime. I could deal with that. Maybe. Either way, Trent Green and Larry Johnson thought it a good idea to keep throwing the ball.
They found a weak spot in the Raider 'D' so Green and Johnson exploited that to the fullest. Down the middle, wide open, 36 yard gain to the Raider 1 yard line. I was so sick. They then (K.C.) turn around and score a TD and I was sicker. Is that possible? Yes. How could this happen? We got soft, thought we had this in pocket and let it happen. Raider God, where were you?
The Chiefs had more passing yards, more rushing yards and it all counted at their most critical times. They even intercepted Collins for a 13 yard return. They sure seemed happy about that one! Our 11 penalties for 92 yards just couldn't have been a factor now could it? Either way, we were just outplayed. Simple.
Next week the Raiders host the 6 - 2 Denver Broncos who have taken week 9 off after a convincing shalacking of the Eagles. Hopefully the Raiders will have gotten their heads out of their 4th point of contact by then. We'll see though.
