Tis the season for NFL predictions.
Our Saturday tradition of picking Las Vegas Raiders games has a holiday twist this week as we prepare for the Raiders’ key AFC West game at the Kansas City Chiefs on Christmas Day. Kickoff is set for 10 a.m. PT.
The 6-8 Raiders have around a 50 percent chance of making the playoffs if they win their final three games. It’s iffy, but they’re alive.
The Raiders are difficult to figure these days. They entered Week 15 on a three-game losing streak and four days after losing 3-0 home to the Minnesota Vikings.
