Pretty much they will be playing for their life. I hope we just crush them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sith13 1,746 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Basically anything that can go right has been going right for the Raiders and it's the exact opposite for us. I think it's an easy for us but with the way Reid has been behaving lately you never know. Mloe68 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamixoye 604 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 I got it wrong, if Oakland beats the Jets and we're both 7-4 going into the game, then if we win it's a 1 game lead + tiebreaker with four to go. That's a magic number of three---three total combined wins by us or losses by them. They have an easy schedule and could win out, we would have LAC and DEN at home, NE and CHI on the road, possibly needing three total wins. I really don't think they win out, though. They could lose to the Jets, too. Mloe68 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean the game we won by 7 despite our all-world QB looking off, a bad field, and some obviously wrong calls that could have screwed us? cpete918 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. The same field that the other team played on. And the qb gave it up 4, should have been 5 times. A win is a win. But I think we all can agree that celebrating week 11 wins isn’t a thing anymore. The goal is the super bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a pretty good argument that the field hurts our style, particularly the offense, more than it hurts other teams. (Although you can argue it cost LA a FG.) This was certainly the worst offensive game we've had that was led by an arguably fully healthy Mahomes, take from that what you will. Having said that, I won't be worried about the offense until this happens for another 1-2 weeks minimum. Rivers chucking it around the field but then giving the ball up is to be expected. It's basically how you beat him. I thought our defense did its job for the most part. Keep it in front, tighten up in the red zone, get those takeaways. How much differently do we feel if just two plays go differently---Honey Badger pulls in that INT, and they don't get the bomb to Williams on the last drive? I'm not perfectly happy with the defense by any stretch, but I think all things considered the night was a net positive to me. Special teams were also pretty good, worst thing is I could nitpick 1-2 Colquitt kicks. Overall the point is we did what we needed to do against a team that a lot of people feel is pretty talented and good despite their record, all in what was technically a road division game in a bad environment. On to the bye. No one is saying this is the Superbowl, but we can be happy with a win. You must be fun at parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can’t celebrate wins unless it’s the Super Bowl then I don’t see much point in being a fan. Enjoy the journey. WINS matter!

But if you are looking at the goal that we started the season with, it’s further away. I get your point about the field and our style of play. It’s definitely valid. and, I loved the balance of the offense. i loved the defensive effort. so, There ya go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhitter 1,424 Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 Yes brothers....enjoy the win! Feels so much better than after the Titans gut punch. Chiefs do need to work on some things. The run game by our backs seems so lacking. When Mahomes is the leading rusher you got a problem. Who the heck is our #1 back? Defense still horrible covering backs out of the backfield. Fortunately the Chargers backs dropped a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the Raiders are entirely capable of beating themselves in the same way that the Chargers did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we can see a complete game from both sides of the ball this time and come out healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also would have scored again if not for them ruling an incomplete pass as a fumble, and I think in general we were content to sit on the lead. cpete918 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there's a difference between sitting on an 18 point lead like in that game when our defense actually had something vs. sitting on the 7 point lead this week or the 9 point lead last week.
