Oakland Raiders (2-4) at Kansas City Chiefs (1-5) Before the bye, I made a big play on the Chiefs to win in Tampa Bay because I felt they were undervalued because of their terrible turnover differential. I noted how they were on a record worst pace in turnover differential and that, at the very least, [...]

The Oakland Raiders this week have listed 20, yes 20, of their players on the final official injury report before Sunday’s game vs. the Chiefs.

Carson Palmer has heard the talk that the Oakland Raiders should simply be done with the whole idea of huddling up. Palmer has done some of his best work in a no-huddle offense, including a 26-23 overtime win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Injuries piling up for Raiders
When the Oakland Raiders signed Shawntae Spencer as a free agent in March, coach Dennis Allen and general manager Reggie McKenzie hoped the veteran cornerback could help stabilize a secondary that underwent significant changes in the offseason.

As much as the Chiefs might want to trade Dwayne Bowe, knowing he probably is landing elsewhere as a free agent, a deal isnt likely for a few reasons. One, another team isnt likely to trade for Bowe without knowing if hell sign a long-term extension, and that lowers the price on what the market will bear. Two, the Chiefs have no other reliable receivers. Scott Pioli and Romeo...

When Matt Cassel suffered a concussion in an ugly 9-6 loss to the Ravens in Week 5, it was obvious Brady Quinn would replace him until he was healthy.
But it was downright shocking to everyone when Romeo Crennel named Quinn the Chiefs' starter going forward once Cassel got healthy. So shocking, in fact, it even caught Quinn off guard.
