KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- In 2014, the game looked as if it would be a lopsided one when the 7-3 Kansas City Chiefs faced the 0-10 Raiders in Oakland. Things appeared much the same way last season when the 5-1 Chiefs went to the West Coast to face the 2-4 Raiders.
The Chiefs lost both times, which makes their game on Sunday in Oakland look like a big, yawning trap despite the teams' respective records. The Chiefs are 9-2 coming off their bye week; the Raiders are 2-9.
The two Chiefs' defeats in Oakland under coach Andy Reid happened in Thursday night games.
