Chiefs beat the Raiders eight of their past nine games at the Coliseum.


This stat sucks

It does, but Bowe is out.

I won't be surprised if they are shut out.

Hope you're correct

Chiefs have won 8 of 9 in Oakland.

Just for shits and giggles, I looked up Dwayne Bowe's splits.

He's had at least 75 yards receiving in all 4 of the wins he's played in at the Coliseum - in 3 of them, had at least 90.

I'm not sure that 8-of-9 stat means much when we're going into the game with Brady Quinn throwing to McCluster and Baldwin.

It also doesn't take into account the fact that these are the QBs we faced @OAK:

Kyle Boller
JaMarcus Russell
Bruce Gradkowski

Not surprisingly, when the Raiders started Jason Campbell they beat us. And they'll beat us again with Palmer.

By my calcs, if KC and Jax both lose out, with the worst case scenario of our remaining opponents going 9-0 and Jax remaining opponents going 3-6 we lose the tie breaker with them. .531 versus .593 opp SOS

Jags remaining opponents Miami-likely go 2-1 Pats-likely go 2-1 Tenn-Likely go 1-2

Chiefs remaining opponents Oakland- likely 1-2(Only win kc) Colts-likely 2-1 Denver-likely 3-0


I'm not worried about SOS.

So any other combination of wins and losses and we win the tiebreaker?

Jax and Oak still have winnable games.

wait...tiebreaker is determined by opponets schedule?

yup

Eric Winston says teams that get the #1 overall pick aren't winners.

He said the year they drafted Okoye one of his teammates said if they had lost a couple more games, they could have had Adrian Peterson. And he countered with "if we had won a couple more games, we could have drafted Darrelle Revis".

Yeah, the first tiebreaker is strength of schedule.

*opponents record*

Yeah, our opponents' record directly determines OUR strength of schedule.
