Raiders at Chiefs for Thursday Night Football.

So far so good at halftime. Chiefs up by 2 scores, Kelce playing well, 68 yards already.

Derrick Johnson out of the game with a leg injury, Sorensen appears to be taking his place at LB; Collinsworth wastes no time setting the table to blame Sorensen for any comeback attempt by the Raiders... I hope NBC dumps him at the end of the year; I'm getting sick of Dungy and Harrison as well...

why not let Anthony Sherman run the ball in that situation? 3rd and 1, you have the lead; what's the worst that could happen? Nah, just let the affleets louse it up themselves....

No matter what. The Raidas and Blackhawks momentum needs to be curbed. Hopefully KC gets it done tonight.

KC got it done tonight with their always solid defense and Alex Smith playing lights out, especially in the first half. Kelce with another great performance and is well on his way to 1K!

Crissy must be upset as Sorensen filled in admirably as LB tonight finishing with 8 tackles !

It's a joke that Sorensen still isn't a starter. All he does is make plays and is always around the ball.

Kelce ties an all-time record for tight ends with his fourth straight hundred yard receiving game. Would be nice to see him break the record next week. It's been a pretty rare occasion over the past 40+ years when a White player breaks a receiving mark.

I wonder if Psycho Harbaugh has a bit of remorse of trying to bury Alex Smith's career, so that Krapadick could be the wondrous affelet of the queer bay in Frisco. I never understood that, after he gave Gerhart the ball at Stanford. Maybe the PC lords of the NFL intimidated him, who knows at this point. Glad that Smith is excelling and that Krapadick is headed towards the sh*tter.

Last night was also Kelce's 5th 100-yard receiving game of the season in total. Very impressive, considering that Rob Gronkowski, the most dominant TE in NFL history, has never had more than five 100-yard games in a season himself. The most 100-yard games in a season for Greg Olsen is three.

Kelce's now only 84 yards from 1,000 with 3 games to go. He's on fire right now and it would be nice to see him close out the season with as many yards as possible.

Also...great to see the Raiders lose!

I remember at the time I was flabbergasted ( and said so right here) Harbaugh benched Alex Smith in favor of Kaepernick. It was highly unusual to unseat a successful QB with an unproven young player but after recovering from a short term injury Smith found himself on the bench and then later on out of town. Too often coaches and especially the media get caught up in the moment with shiny new black players who flame out quickly but a little bit of wisdom comes in handy. Wasn't RG3 the next big thing too?
Kelce has been my favorite TE the past couple of seasons. He has genuine deep speed and is playing wonderfully down the stretch. I was so glad the Raiders lost last night. Maybe it was the travel who knows but the men in black looked like crap last night. Sorensen has played well all season.

Great win for KC. It especially helps NE trying for home field advantage in the playoffs.

Hilarious moment in the game: Kelce mocking Oakland's "flamboyant" punter Marquette King after Tyreek Hill punt return TD. Kelce did some kind of ridiculous ride the pony dance to King as he walked off the field. King also mishandled a snap on a field goal attempt. But he'll still be the dancing punter with the rocket leg.

Harbaugh may have blown a Super Bowl win by not going with Alex Smith over Kaepernick.

Theo Riddick is inactive for the Lions today. Which means yet another chance for Zach Zenner to get a lot of touches, but if the past pattern holds he won't.

But if things go well both Zach and Rex Burkhead have the potential to have nice games.

The Crawfords can help put the Bills playoff hopes in the toilet this week and perhaps starting to put the wheels in motion to get rid of whaley, fat rex and the idler arm.

The Redskins need to beat the Eagles to remain in the playoff race. Green Bay needs to defeat the Seahawks and the Bengals need to knock out the AA QB Gremlin! Hopefully Brees is able to lead the Saints to a victory over Rapeis.

Hopefully Barkley has another solid performance to give him more leverage as a viable QB option for the Bears next season.

I'm also hoping for Barkley to have a good game as he's exceeded the expectations of the media and DWFs so far.

This could be the day Daniel Braverman finally gets some receptions as the Bears' receiving corps is really beat up.

The Bears receiving corps is a flat out joke and proof positive of the caste system in play. I hope Braverman gets some quality playing time. I also like that TE Brown - former WR converted to TE. Depending on how the draft goes and what they decided to do at QB and head coach the Bears could start whitening up some.

I agree Leonardfan that it would be great for the Bills to lose today and hopefully their remaining games as well. I just saw a report that they would be players for Tony Romo in the offseason. If they clear house of Dougtavious, Rasta Rex and Idler Arm then Buffalo would be a great landing place. It would also insure that the other myriad of quotablacks never see the field. We can only hope....

I think Manuel is a FA after the season and will probably end up being an all time bust and out of the league next year. I have not heard anything positive or any type of FA buzz around him. Whaley hand picked Manuel and he has been an epic bust. However neither Whaley or Manuel are dragged through the mud, ridiculed or questioned. Manuel was the 16th pick in the draft!!!! Remember that Marrone brought in Kyle Orton in 2014 and the Bills went a respectable 9-7 but than Orton retired and Marrone quit (probably due to Whaley and internal politics).

Here is a funny interview from 2013:

All He Do Is Lose aka the gremlin already down 13-0.

Tyler Eifert with a TD for the ever Whiter Bengals.

Idler arm 9 yards passing almost halfway through the second quarter. Putting up a krapernick like performance in the snow!

Hue Jackson coaching scared by putting the Gremlin back in there thinking he is the best chance to win. Kessler should of been the guy for the rest of the season.
