Raiders are favored to beat KC by 4.5 points. Nothing is ever certain, so hopefully we win this, and rest up during the bye week. We won the previous two meetings.

Anyone else get the feeling or sense this is 1 of those classic "trap" games? Really need to win this one & after the bye against Denver 2 be going in strong/on a high note against the Chargers! ! !

Kyle Boller is now going to start. Blah!

I'm expecting a big win here. 30-10 or so.

Raiders front-line is one of the best at getting to the QB. I want us blitzing Tebow at every opportunity. Knock that fool on his ass.

Bush is going to go crazy.

[HMFFL]

Bush should have a great game against Denver. I just hope we get to Tebow early and that Palmer has a good game. We need some positive vibes and this game is a must win, since we dropped the one to KC, and since the division is so close.

I can see Miami stealing one out from under KC this week and SD is facing Green Bay.

Go Raiders!

Aaron Curry is looking like one hell of a pick up.

[element_88]

That turned ugly pretty quickly.

[HMFFL]

We should be on top of the division standing all by ourselves right now. What a sad and frustrating game against Denver!

I hope for a better showing against SD.

Great game so far. Raiders Nation 24 - Chargers 10

Awesome job by the team last night.

Carson Palmer was fantastic. Only made one mistake by holding onto the ball too long on that fumble. He threw nice crisp passes and was smart with the football. O-Line gave him alot of time. Other than that, Bush ran great, Line blocked well, and Moore was a BEAST!

D-Line pummeled Rivers all night. Wimbley with 4 sacks? YES, PLEASE! Huge win.

Week 11 Division Games:

Sunday:
N.Y. Jets -4.5 Denver +4.5
Oakland +1 Minnesota -1
San Diego +3.5 Chicago -3.5
Monday:
8:30 PM EST Kansas City at New England

I think the Jets beat Denver this Thursday, Chicago will hopefully beat San Diego, and New England should win fairly easily at home against Kansas City. So, now it's up to our Raiders to make things happen, and to gain more ground in the division.

[HMFFL]

Well, Denver pulled that win our of their ass. We must win against Minny so we can continue to control the division.

[HMFFL]

Darrius Heyward-Bey leaves the game on a stretcher. It looked like it was the back of his head or back area. Scary situation.

[Bay_Areas_Finest]

Great game by our club yesterday. Bush was fantastic (except for that fumble) and Palmer was the star. Led our offense so well and was turnover free. Scary situation with DHB.

Refs were so bad though! God. I understand we commit alot of penalties, but the PF calls yesterday were atrocious. That "blow to the head" by Tommy Kelly!? WHAT A JOKE! Pissed me off. Vikings got every call.

Screw them. We're still great.

[HMFFL]

The refs are against us for sure. I think the NFL wants Tebow mania to continue because it'll bring more positive attention to the league (Blah).

Hue Jackson is supposedly going to take matters into his own hands and discuss the penalties with the NFL. We all know we're going to commit a great deal of penalties, but it's getting out of hand, so it's nice to know Coach is going to confront the NFL about it in a professional manner.
