    Can't use the flag as a prop apparently is a NFL rule.

    had to go and build the wife's Inversion table so posting wasn't possible but DAMN these boys answered the questions. and if this was a close game i'd send someone to slap King. Funny but dumb penalty

    I believe that Kansas City will be favored odds-wise and I'm sure everyone will pick them.

    Raider hater Dan Fouts who was calling the game got emotional calling it a bush league play...

    I heard that too and I was like...bush league? Okay. Never mind someone thrashes their legs into the kicker in the middle of his extension but god forbid he picks up the flag. I thought King dancing with the flag was kind of funny myself.

    Early TNF snap counts:

    - can't have a slow start against the Chief defense and the din at Arrowhead.
    - if there was a pivotal game for the defense to show its mettle, this would be IT.
    - check that wanna be reality show star TE Travis Kelce.
    - check that Tyreke Hill.
    - I expect Crabtree to have a big game...All-World CB Peters will cover Cooper.
    - Our O-Line should hold up against Hali and Houston.
    - screens, screens, screens. Both our backs and their backs.
    - whoever the p.o.s. that put together our tough last quarter stretch probably thought we won't be relevant and we would be fodder for the AFC West race. Yeah, I can be conspiracy theorist. So what? :)
    - thanks to puffyusa#2's reporting...I really can't stand Kurt Warner.
    - to my Raider brothers here...watch "A Football Life" about Charles Woodson airing 12/9/16.
    - I hope Pound4pound finds a way to watch Thursday after touching down from Da Homeland.
    - because Carr found his team down by 15 in the middle of third, some ex-quarterback turned analyst probably thinks it's due to inconsistent play and in the end, he "did alright."
    - here's to Carr to keep being "did alright" like he has been since our last loss.

    Additional snap counts:

    - S Joseph went out, Nate Allen comes in and picks off a pass.
    - Carr for MVP? Mack for DPOY?
    - welcome back Perry Riley Jr.
    - welcome to The League, James Cowser...timely sack too.
    - Murray just grinds, grinds and then grinds some more.
    - Hayden's last game as a Raider against Carolina? Fabian Moreau anyone?
    - just found out yesterday that RB Washington was de-activated because of Jalen Ree...shard's continued productivity.
    - sign Roberts to a long-term contract! Hell of a blocker which goes unnoticed.
    - still waiting for Walford to be consistent...in the meantime, thank goodness for Rivera.
    - another game, another Crabtree taunting penalty.
    - expecting Crabtree to have a big game Thursday after a sub-par Sunday.
    - have a personal sense of inner calm about Thursday...weird, really weird.
    - McCoy is the best RB in The League not named Adrian Peterson...cat quick and makes just about everyone miss.
    - Matt Ryan is a dolt.

    Agree on Cowser. Welcome, big man.

    Saw a video of Aldon Smith's workouts - he's staying in shape. Hope we get him back. Would be a huge lift for the KC game.

    I think KC is a great team but man people act like they are world beaters. I was listening to Dion and that annoying LT (still don't like him) and they were talking about how KC is the most complete and how they are going to win the West. We win games after being boneheads at times it is "carr is great BUT...." then KC wins 2 straight weeks because teams gifted them the Victory and it is "wow, see they can make the plays and can win it all cause they have won tough games."

    Um have you seen them Raiders? I guess not.

    ...and so it begins. Sanders, great cover player, can't tackle a nun. Tomlinson...former Charger so 'nuff said.

    From SI's Fine Fifteen rankings:

    3. Oakland (10-2). LW: 3. The fact that Derek Carr can pull his team out of a 24-9 deficit and deliver a convincing win against a tough Bills team is why he’s my leading candidate for MVP. Carr has a 120.8 passer rating in the fourth quarter. You can never count the Raiders out of any game.

    ^Not bad for a QB who always "did alright"...
