First, the Chiefs are only little less crappy than the Raiders. It's reeruned to say "We suck less than you do." There's no bragging rights for this season.

Second, the loser is actually the winner. If the horrible event of us beating the Chargers comes to pass every glossy eyed Raider fan is going to be bragging about how great of a coach Dennis Allen is because he won two out of three to finish the season. And it'll be just enough to ensure he keeps his job. If we finish 4-12 Reggie McKenzie can still justifiably fire him. But at 5-11, it'll be tougher. 3-13 would have sealed it.

Finally, it's so bad that I have to root for the Chiefs to win out and the Raiders to lose out. I don't think in the history of my f'ing life has that ever happened. And the Jags sure as hell aren't going to help anyone out but themselves. They've got losing down to a science.
