September 20th, 2009 - Kansas City Chiefs - 10, Oakland Raiders - 13
This was Matt Cassel's debut in Kansas City. In another display of No.1 pick ability Jamarcus Russel finished the day 7-24 for 109 yards, and a victory for the Oakland Raiders. How, just how?
Each team could only manage a field goal in the first half before Sebastian Janikowski's 54-yard field goal in the third quarter gave the Raiders the lead at 6-3. Then with just under 3 minutes to play in the game Matt Cassel hit Dwayne Bowe for a 29-yard touchdown pass to give the Chiefs the 10-6 lead.

January 2nd, 2011 - Kansas City Chiefs 10, Oakland Raiders - 31
We all remember this game as the Chiefs got blown out at home to end the regular season a few days after offensive coordinator Charlie Weis announced his decision to move on to the University of Florida. It was also the game where former Chiefs head coach Marty Schottenheimer was inducted into the Kansas City Chiefs Hall of Fame at halftime.
Matt Cassel finished the game 11-33 for 115 yards and two interceptions in one of the worst games of his career. Jamaal Charles finished the game with 87 yards on 14 carries and a touchdown. He also just narrlowly missed Jim Brown's record of 6.4 yards per carry on the season and he finished the season at 6.38.
Current Chiefs cornerback and former Raider, Stanford Routt, added a pick six late in the fourth quarter of this game that extended the Raiders lead to 31-10. Michael Bush finished the game with 137 yards on 25 carries and added a touchdown.
Cassel was sacked seven times in this game as the Chiefs fell to 10-6 and the Raiders evened up their season record at 8-8. The Raiders finished the season with a perfect 6-0 record in the division but missed the playoffs. Heh.
December 24th, 2011 - Kansas City Chiefs - 10, Oakland Raiders - 13
They all sting but this one stung a lot. It will forever be known as the game the Chiefs could have gone back to the playoffs had they not had a couple of blocked field goals.
Carson Palmer and Kyle Orton had a battle royale of adequate quarterback play as each finished the game with one touchdown and two interceptions. Sebastian Janikowski hit a 31-yard field goal with just under three minutes left in the game to give the Raiders a 13-6 lead late in the fourth quarter.
Kyle Orton then led the Chiefs down the field with under two minutes remaining in the game with a large chunk of yardage coming on a 49-yard pass play to Dexter McCluster. It set up the 3-yard touchdown pass to Dwayne Bowe that tied the game with just over a minute remaining.
The Chiefs defense forced a 3-and-out on the ensuing Raiders possession and got the ball back with a chance to win. We all know what happens after this and it just makes me angry so I will stop there.
That brings us to this Sunday. Hopefully we can end this ridiculous streak and get back to beating our hated rival on our own field.
What else do we all remember about these games?
