ALAMEDA, Calif. -- One positive to come out of the Oakland Raiders' bye weekend: At 4-5, they did not lose any ground in the AFC West as both the Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Chargers lost to fall to 3-6, and the first-place Kansas City Chiefs (6-3) were idle.

Another encouraging development: No Raiders receivers dropped a pass.

Yes, the irony is dripping off your screen much like the stickum did off Fred Biletnikoff's hands. And arms. And shoulder pads. And helmet. And legs.

Because this much is true: Despite the Raiders' oft-high-powered offense of recent vintage, Oakland has issues holding on to the ball.
