I don't like this game.

I've tried all week to ease my mind about this football game.
Unfortunately, I've been unsuccessful at doing so.

Thus far this year I've seen the Chiefs do two things:
1. Prove that they can play with the best of the best in the NFL.
2. Play well enough to expect them to contend for this division and get a post-season berth.

What they have not done, though, is play well enough on the road to beat a good football team. We failed to capitalize on two great opportunities to win games in Indianapolis and Houston. Good football teams win those games.

If this team is to be taken seriously in the post-season...
We need to beat a good team on the road. The road is where we may very well have to win once the playoffs get started.

When the season started, winning 6 games was my expectation for this team. I thought winning 8 would be the high watermark and would prove we were moving forward in this rebuilding process. Given how well this team has played... I expect them now to win 9-10 games. Winning in Oakland could give us a chance to win 11 and maybe get a home playoff game and a chance at a first-round bye.

I'm not sure why I don't feel good about this matchup in Oakland.
We've played better football teams, on the road, and narrowly missed out on a win.

We're better at running the football.
We're better at stopping the run.
We're better in the Special Teams department.
We're better coached.
With Asomugha out & Lilja back we have an advantage in the passing game.

That's alot to be confident about, but...I just don't feel that way.
Hate to say that.

Cassel and this passing game need to show up on Sunday.
We know both teams are going to pound the ball, but I'm not sure that that's where this game will be won. We're gonna have to have a few big pass plays to sustain drives and keep pace on the scoreboard. If there's anything the Raiders can do, lately, it's score points (92 in the last 2 games). Granted those came against a struggling road team (SEA) and a bad bad Denver team...It's hard to tell just how much the last two weeks mean.

I've tried to tune out the naysayers... Buffalo took Baltimore to the wire too and they needed the extra period as well to win.

I've also tried to turn a deaf ear to Chiefs fans who aren't willing to be honest about the chinks in this team's armor.

We're a good football team...I'm convinced.
Now we need to prove that we're a team that can step into the playoffs and win a big game outside the four walls of Arrowhead Stadium.

Now is as good a time as any.

This game is our Kobiyashi Maru.

If we win, it's because we're playing the Raiders, and, well, they're the Raiders. Or it's because of the wet field. Whatever happens, it won't really prove anything, just like the 7 previous game.

And if we lose...

We've been exposed as frauds. We can't win outside of Arrowhead. We haven't played anybody (that one goes if we win, too...).

I'm all worked up over this game, and it's important for the standings, but I have a feeling all the same stuff we've been hearing nationally and talking about locally, none of that changes Sunday.

He's an unwinnable scenario.

We have to reprogram him.

Kobiyashi Matt.

Just curious what manly, macho things you tried doing to ease your worried mind about the upcoming game?

May I recommend mixed wrestling? It is a very excellent stress reliever:

It's just time for the Charaiders to crash back to Earth. I'm sure they've been clipping press releases all week in the locker room and experiencing delusions of greatness. They are who they are, though.

The over/under on stupid Charaider fouls and penalties should probably be around 20.
