Kansas City Chiefs
vs.
Oakland Raiders
So, the Chiefs suffered their first loss, and now go down to the Black Hole to take on the Raiders, who themselves have lost four straight now.
On the surface, you have to wonder if Oakland can even win, given how hot KC has been, and how poorly they themselves have been playing. But you have to figure that the Raiders are too good to keep on losing and, at some point, they are going to stop the bleeding. And they do need to do it soon, before the season is lost - and it is getting close. Another loss or two, and indeed, they will be facing a premature end soon if they don't get back to winning soon.
But the Chiefs suffered their first loss, and should be wide awake for this one. I expect that Andy Reid will have whipped his team into shape, and should have them playing sharply. Also, teams that keep losing seem to get a bit too used to it, and I suspect that is what the Raiders will suffer from this week, as well.
My pick: Kansas City
