ALAMEDA– Raiders coming off back to back to wins it’s big as they get prepared for the Kansas City. The Raiders just so happened to have faced two football clubs in the Denver Broncos and the New York Giants who are having tough seasons and the Raiders caught them at a time when they are struggling. The Chiefs the Raiders next opponent have lost four straight they started the season at 5-0 now the Chiefs are 6-6 angry, desperate and are at home this Sunday to try and get back in the win column.

The Raiders want to keep it going they have won two straight against Denver and NY Giants before that they were on a three game losing streak so there’s so much riding on getting this game for the Raiders. Quarterback Derek Carr will be happy the team is full strength after missing Michael Crabtree for the last two games on a suspension, then Marshawn Lynch had served a one game suspension for contact with an official, and Amari Cooper was out with an injury last week is scheduled to return this Sunday.
