This at least on paper looks like a huge mismatch. Looking at it even closer how many times do we say throw out the current w-l as they are division rivals. Here we go as this game has all the ingredients for a "Perfect Storm" for Raider Nation and a "Trap Game" for Red Thursday.

The Chiefs come in on a short week really happy they are away from frigid Kansas City. They are as hot as anyone rolling through the likes of the Bolts, Seahawks, Gang Green, Bills Mafia, and state rival the Rams. Since that 0-2 start they are 7-1 and doing it with their stars doing what they need to do and everyone else doing their job!

The Raiders meanwhile running on fumes from day one have nothing to lose and will be dangerous as a Honey Badger backed into a corner alley looking to unleash some serious pain. Can the Raiders or does the Silver and Black have enough horses to pull off the biggest upset in 2014 in the 'Shield"? Rook QB Derek Carr looks like a keeper and Backer Khalil Mack is a monster...c'mon Raiders!

#KCvsOAK Game Outlook

The Chiefs are running on all cylinders and the Raiders defensive game plan better start and stop with the Lake Charles LA Beast by way of 'Hookem in RB Jamaal Charles. Charles a Top 3 RB in the "Shield" is averaging over five yards per tote and he has help. RB Knile Davis the same type of RB gives the Chiefs non-stop fresh legs in that running game with quality and that two-headed monster is tough to stop.

The Chiefs will also be looking at trying to exploit that Silver and Black secondary with WR Dwayne Bowe and TE Travis Kelce. Can that Secondary stop Alex Smith who is more intermediate route passer than a deep Pig thrower?

The Chiefs have not allowed a rushing TD all season long due to their monster up front led by All-Pro DT Dontari Poe. Raiders O-Lone needs to generate some type of run game for Mo Jones-Drew and Run DMC McFadden or they will, have no shot.

Chiefs OLB Justin Houston might walk after 2014 with Chiefs 2013 1st rounder Dee Ford of Auburn waiting in the wings. Houston leads the "Shield" in red jersey collections with a Red Thursday dozen. Can the Silver and Black run the pig on Red Thursday?

Raiders are last in total yards on offense, 26th with the pass, and dead last running. Going by the numbers its a bad match up for the Raiders. Chiefs are #1 vs the pass but 25th against the run but #2 in points against and 8th in total yards. Something has to give and the Chief are on a major roll with United in Orange set to come to Arrowhead on Black Friday weekend.

Winner: Red Thursday 23-10...Jamaal Charles goes straight Nut Factory in the Black Hole!
