What a game we have in store on Thursday night that will go a long way in determining the 2016 AFC champ. Both these teams are playing excellent football and are simply finding ways to win no matter what the situation. This is the type of game that even the causal NFL fan is going to watch and should make it the most watched Thursday night game of the year so far.
The Raiders have been perfect on the road (5-0) and are one of the NFL’s best 4th quarter teams, mainly because of the MVP type year QB Derek Carr is having. The Chiefs have been sizzling winning 7 of their last 8, including one of the most incredible last minute wins you will ever see, on a pick 2 last week by Eric Berry after the Falcons went for 2 late up by a point, then found themselves down by one after the 100 yard return for a 2 PT conversion.
This is going to be one of the best games of the year and will be as back and forth as we have seen any game this season in the NFL. I love what K.C. is doing, but the Raiders are just too damn good on the road this year not to fade them and with the way Derek Carr is playing, you simply can’t bet against them.
