Damn, you updated my pick in the spreadsheet fast...

I literally went to the first page after my last post and looked at the Week 13 standings, but noticed my pick for tonight was already in.

I plan to watch this game, unlike so many others in prime time slots, so I am online and the forum buddy tells me when something is happening in the NFL thread.

The Chiefs can sweep the Raiders and get in first place while a Raiders win would result in a two-game-lead for Oakland in the AFC West. Also, I have three players on my fantasy team that will play tonight. I'll be rooting for a 41-38 win for the Chiefs.

I used to be a Raiders fan as well back in the day, but 15 years of nonstop ass whippin's made me numb to them, like I learned to become one with the pain. I got so used to them taking it up the ass that my mind still can't comprehend that they no longer suck, so I can't enjoy this season, because I'm thinking the bottom will fall out any day now.

Also, tell me more about this forum buddy.

This free Twitter game is legit, can just mute when commercials come on and watch video game streams or youtube.

Edit: Haven't seen  a Raiders game in ages, so this is where Crabtree ended up.

Alex Smith with the reception, what a throw!

Wth Hill is fast.

Seriously, you don't know about the forum buddy? It's on the left side (unless you are browsing on mobile), showing the 15 most recent threads you've posted in. Orange icons if there are unread posts in a thread, blue icons if you were quoted by someone.

Oh, that. I was thinking of an external app that sends you a message in a thread you're active in, instead of needing to refresh or load a new page.

Too soon for that. Last week Raiders vs. Bills was 9-10 at the half, then 9-24 midway through the third quarter. The Raiders won 38-24.

Admittedly, the Chiefs are a higher quality team than the Bills.

Yeah Bills have a weak defense. Losing a lead of 18 at half for Chiefs would be some sort of travesty for the Chiefs Defense.

Well, it's only an 11-point-lead at the half, so it's not that much of an uphill battle for the Raiders. Plus that long drive to close out the half shows that the Raiders offense shouldn't be written off despite their early struggles.

I don't follow the Chiefs so maybe the Johnson injury would count as a travesty. Like how I felt when Kuechley got injured, the Panthers simply couldn't do anything without that guy.

Wow. I expected the Chiefs to win, just because the Chiefs are kings of winning strange games.

But what I didn't expect was for the Raiders to turn back into their perennial 4-12, 3-13 kind of dumpster fire. WOW they were garbage tonight, at basically every level. Carr looked bad, Amari Cooper was TERRIBLE. Crabtree was bad. Their best player was L Murray, but even he looked really mediocre, with no agility or vision. Just an abominable performance that everyone should feel ashamed of. The 13 points they put up were undeserved. They deserve to have 0 points.

KC defense strutting it's stuff. They may not stop the yardage but they make important stops to stop points.
