Raiders Toppled By Kansas City

I want to first say that I am extremely pissed about the way the game turned out this afternoon.


Just when I thought the Raiders might turn things around and win a couple games here to finish the season strong, they go ahead and give the Killer City Chiefs their second win of the season and drop to 3-9 themselves. Let's say I can feel for the Bronco fans after last week.


The offense of every game prior to last week showed up again. Except for the first half, the Raiders had 185 yards of total offense, not exactly Texas Tech numbers, but pretty good none the less. They come out in the second half and do absolutely nothing. JaMarcus ended at 10/28 for 132 yards. He did have some long scrambles though. Justin Fargas had a decent game, (82 yards and a score) but had the fumble that was the back-breaker. JaMarcus' favorite target was TE Zach Miller because the WR's were, once again, non-existent.


Larry Johnson seemed to be the Larry Johnson of old again, having rushed for 92 yards on 15 carries collecting a TD along the way. Tyler Thigpen wasn't very great, but he seemed to be able to find Tony G when ever he needed to make a play.


The Raiders are set to take on a struggling San Diego Chargers team on the NFL Network's "Thursday Night Football" this week.
