My Week 12 picks are in. http://sportschump.net/2014/11/20/week-twelve-spread-pick-em-sportschump-vs-kp-vs-ken-fang/14727/ Some monster spreads this week which means money stands to be made if a number of dogs hit.
Chiefs should probably be favored by more, but this is the Raid-uhs. Maybe the most bitter rivalry in the NFL in the 60's and 70's when QB's were fair game. At the end of the day, spreads really don't mean stick in this one, esp. that it 's played in Oakland.
Well, and the Chiefs just played an extremely physical game against the Seahawks 4 days ago. Add in a very muddy field from what I've heard and I don't expect a blowout. I'd say something like 20-14 would be expected. Or, even a raiders win if they get some bounces.
only team in the league worse than the redskins are the raiders.i see the chiefs winning by at least two tds.
Eh, i don't know. ... the jags, jets, and titans are pretty awful too. The skins suck but I wouldn't say they're the 2nd worst. They're definitely in the bottom 5 though.
Once Murray went out it was a pretty boring game, just the marginally decent Chiefs taking advantage of the bad Oakland team. I will say though, the Raiders have shown flashes of being pretty damn decent on both sides of the ball (as Im typing this Carr hit Jones for the likely game-winner). Carr looks legit, straight up. The defense, same thing, big flashes and Mack looks really good...if they can improve and become more consistent, they could have the core of a very good team in years to come.
I know its crazy to say that about an ofer team, Im not saying they ARE good...but they aren't all that far off and they're young, improving. I can def see Carr-Holmes becoming a monster connect.
Wow that idiotic sack celebration was just incredibly brainless, Im blown away. Big props to Tuck for being heads up enough to call the TO, nice vet move. Didnt matter. Congrats Raiders.
I was a lot more stoked on Derek Carr before he opened his interview with "Ah just praise the name o Jesus". Thats cool you like Jesus and all, I think he was a pretty decent guy myself, but you and your teammates just did that, you outplayed the opposition, give yourself some credit for being yourself, plus Im pretty sure Jesus was not on the roster. I cant wait til someone gives all respect to Allah and the Prophet Muhammad in a postgame. That will be fun.
I've been hoping for the Prophet Muhammad comment or someone to "come out of the closet" during a post game interview.
It was pretty obvious early that the Raiders were focused in for this one. And the chiefs did look sluggish to me.
Just checked out the Chiefs remaining schedule. This loss will haunt them as they watch the playoffs from their living rooms.
the chiefs have actually lost to the raiders AND the titans. if they miss the postseason, they have no one to blame but themselves.
