Question from a Raiders fan

by ROFLCOPTER16 on Dec 25, 2011 9:49 PM CST

I'm not here to gloat. I will offer no comment on yesterday's game besides happiness that my team has Richard Seymour. But now that the Raiders and Broncos are the only ones left for the division lead, your team will play a deciding role in who wins the division.

Flash back to last year week 17. Your team has clinched the division at 10-5. Oakland comes in to town at 7-8. They are already eliminated from the postseason and have just come off a heartbreaking loss to Indianapolis. They have absolutely nothing to play for and nothing to gain from winning, and are missing several key players, including star RB Darren McFragile. Yet somehow, they not only win, but come out and dominate for a final score of 31-10. Cassel is put under such ferocious pressure he is pulled for fear of injury. Michael Bush runs for over 100 yards. The Raiders had enough pride to play their asses off and win.

Can your team do the same? Do you think they can get up for the Donkeys and end the season on a high note?

Comment below.

I agree with that.

But the fact is that we are not guaranteed a spot if Cincy loses. If Cincy loses and the Jets lose, the Titans have the tiebreaker on us.

Plus I couldn’t stand Tebow fans in the playoffs.

moreover ... can the Raiders beat the Chargers? find out, eh?

Chiefs will play hard, no question of that, but will it be enough? ah, that’s the million dollar question … they won’t roll over and play dead, that’s a guarantee (Crennel wants the team to look good and hopefully win so he has the inside track on Head Coaching job for next year, Orton might like some revenge, though he’s too much of a gentleman and sportsman to say anything like that)

I won’t guarantee a Chiefs win, but I’ll guarantee a good effort …

I think we can definitely win not just for pride but for several other reasons.

Our team should be motivated to shut down tebow and keep them outta the playoffs. Orton wants to play well to hopefully sign a good contract next year. And romeo is trying to earn a permanent head coaching job. All of that and personal pride gives them plenty of reason to play their asses off.

If RAC can't get a 2-score lead on Denver, and can't get over his conventional thinking on D,

then Tebow’ll Tebow us again.

The blueprint for beating Tebow is pretty clear. RAC cracked against him, last time, same way he cracked against Oakland in this last meeting, mistaking conservatism for leaving his slow safeties 1-on-1 down the field, with an anemic 4- man pass rush on the front end.

The fan in me wants to win

The pragmatist says that the possibility of picking as low as 8th compared to as high as 16th plus the possibly weaker 4th place schedule isn’t worth a pointless win.

What are the holes you'd want to plug via draft?

Your IR guys should be back next year.

O line, d-line.

The possibility of us helping the Raiders get into the playoffs bothers me more than anything.

by ChiefsFetish on Dec 25, 2011 11:04 PM CST up reply actions

Have to respect your attitude.

I would say the same thing to you, but I couldnt watch my team lose to Denver……
Have a good new year.

Thanks for the good laugh ROFL with the first poll answer!

Seriously, though, I sure hope they end it on a high note by kicking the donkeys out of the playoffs.

It may sound weird, but if my Chiefs don’t get the division crown, I’d rather our biggest rival win the west than the truly hated donks.

It surprises some people that Raiderfan and Troll aren't always a package deal.

Well judging by the small sample size of Raiders fan that come here...

you would understand.

Especially the clown that showed up in the post game thread yesterday.

It might surprise you to learn how hard Silver and Black Pride got trolled early this year.

But I normally save my trolling for ESPN boards, where Raiderfans flash-mob and crash a random board every so often.

by ROFLCOPTER16 on Dec 25, 2011 10:41 PM CST up reply actions

I crashed Bolts from the Blue

before the KC game in Arrowhead and predicted that the bag of suck that is Phyllis Rivers would give the game away and got banned for it. Worth every word.

By crash I mean shut down. Literally.

We barely come here as Wood-dude tosses us if he feels we're being snarky...

We dont filter anything at SBP…there arent any mods who believe in censorship…so we makethe misake of speaking the same in other blogs.
Seriously, just as we have ‘friends’ from other blogs we talk to and enjoy, we also get a huge amount of trollage.
But hey, cant shoot all the dogs because a few have fleas…but your mod here is a little fast on the trigger.

Look if you guys promise us a win I will go over my friend's house and put on a Priest Holmes jersey over my Raider jersey.

I will actually root for the Chiefs during the game while wearing Holmes’ jersey. Hey you guys gotta admit that is a super-big sacrifice on my part LOL! Now go kick some Donkey butt!

Now that is a big committment.

someone made this point in another post

i like the fact that the raiders will lose another pick if they make the playoffs as part of the carson palmer trade

by T_Town_CHIEFSfan on Dec 25, 2011 11:15 PM CST reply actions

We gotta win a game in the playoffs at least.

by ROFLCOPTER16 on Dec 25, 2011 11:39 PM CST up reply actions

gotta get there first ;-)

good luck … hoping the Chiefs at least do their part, the rest is up to the “red hot” Raiders

by upamtn on Dec 26, 2011 11:41 AM CST up reply actions

Yeah I think that the Palmer trade involves a win in the playoffs

which IMO will not happen if in fact they do make it. They would play the steelers I think.

by Ren on Dec 26, 2011 12:57 PM CST up reply actions

I mentioned this in ROFLCOPTER's post

We gave up a No.1 in 2012 but a No.1 in 2013 is contingent on us making it to the AFC championship game EITHER this year or next year; otherwise, we give up a No.2 in 2013. We only have to make to the AFC championship game, not win it.

by RaiderPsycho on Dec 26, 2011 5:57 PM CST up reply actions

damnit...well i hate the donks more...probably because i know more donkey fans for some reason

ive come to the point where i wont watch a donkey vs CHIEFS game with a denver fan because i just cant stand hearing anything about that team period

by T_Town_CHIEFSfan on Dec 26, 2011 12:19 AM CST reply actions

Rest Assured,

KC will delight greatly in any win over Denver.

It will be much sweeter knowing we did our part to foil their post-season hopes;
In other words, don’t worry about us.. just do your part and kick San Diego’s ass!

I think Orton has a score to settle...

He will throw all over them I think.

by Ren on Dec 26, 2011 12:57 PM CST reply actions

Not only do I want the Chiefs to beat the Broncos, troll,

but I think the Raiders give the AFCW a better shot at winning a game in the playoffs. They’re a more complete team.

All they have to do is play clean, and they’re a matchup for just about anybody. I don’t see ‘em playin’ clean, of course, but that’s better than letting a friggin’ option QB beat us out for the playoffs.
