Second thoughts on KC vs Oakland


This game is giving me mad headaches. I've studied it and studied it over and over again. Kansas City should win this one. No second thoughts. No regrets. Not the case.

On one hand, here you have the Chiefs, who OWN Oakland Coliseum for the last 6 sessions there. Last season,  Matt Cassel got it done there with fire ass passing(Well, with the Pats anyway) Plus, you have all the Tom Cable distractions going on. Then, there's the fact that the Raiders aren't that good anyway, starring an unproven JaMarcus Russell(He's not that bad). So why worry?

Reason #1:  No Larry Johnson to put up stupid yards rushing. Well, no Larry Johnson period. Another Tom Cable-esqe distraction to fuel  more turmoil to a 1-7 squad looking for a precious win. Reason #2:  No Tony Gonzalez either. The two main reasons KC has had puppet master control over the Raiders at their own field.

But here's my bottom line. I'm still going for the Chiefs. Kansas Ctiy is just going to have to break me. Conversations between me and my office pool foes have led me to believe that there will be a 50-50 split with this match up. Like I said, Kansas City will just have to break me. Solid...........
