On to Kansas City
Maybe we get the benefit of a few extra flags against KC next week to kill “ the league wants KC to win” narrative.

I am just saying, maybe the NFL/Refs have a new punching bag in Amy Adams

Raiders are top 10 against the run. 12th overall.
After six weeks it's safe to say our defense is good enough for us to win. If we have decent QB play, no doubt the Raiders are a .500 team. It's unfortunate that we inherited the worst version of an already middling quarterback.
Geno Smith admitted in his last presser that Micheal Mayer and Bowers are his "security blankets". Not having a 100% Bowers has been more of a detriment than we realized.

NFL wants those Swifties lolAtlasffa wrote: Mon Oct 13, 2025 1:49 pm You're right. Lots of calls get missed, called by mistake, etc., every game day. The "ref didn't call it right" excuse is lame. And then you see play after play after play where there was no call on Chiefs, or ticky-tacky calls on their opponent. It makes people wonder--even people who are not inclined to blame refs for Ws and Ls.![]()

I've been a fan of this team for 58 years. I seldom say anything about bias against the Raiders. I really don't want to now.......... but, anyone with eyes can see there is a bias against the Raiders in the NFL... at least there is a strong appearance of that being so. In the past, they were good enough to overcome it; now.................
Go ahead and tell me how I suck... how I'm full of shit.... how I'm making excuses... etc.... I'll understand.

10 out of 10 refs asked about “Amy Adams” would assume you’re talking about a red-headed actress.Attyla wrote: Mon Oct 13, 2025 2:01 pm I am just saying, maybe the NFL/Refs have a new punching bag in Amy Adams

Didn't we read sometime in the last year or so one of the refs (I guess he had retired so could speak freely?) talked about how before his first Raider game one of the other refs said something like "here we go with Raider week?"

I do like Amy Adams. She's in a pretty good baseball movie with Clint Eastwood called "Trouble With the Curve."GoodTimeCharlie wrote: Mon Oct 13, 2025 6:22 pm 10 out of 10 refs asked about “Amy Adams” would assume you’re talking about red-headed actress.

Amy Adams is smoking hot. I also liked her in "The Fighter" with Mark Wahlberg.raider_kin wrote: Mon Oct 13, 2025 6:32 pm I do like Amy Adams. She's in a pretty good baseball movie with Clint Eastwood called "Trouble With the Curve."

I agree with you. I wasn’t kidding about the Swifties. It’s all about money, KC being bad isn’t good for business.Dr Death wrote: Mon Oct 13, 2025 5:50 pm I've been a fan of this team for 58 years.

early on i can see the chiefs going with the marty schottenheimer game plan 'play the raiders close, and wait for them to make a mistake'
sit on routes, play the run first, and dare geno to throw
the 12th man [refs] will be watching carefully as well
