The Raiders have several long-term goals. The first is to win the AFC West. That mission hasn’t been accomplished since 2002. The Raiders were in pole position to snap that streak, but couldn’t beat Kansas City. This year, they’ll have to conquer the NFL’s toughest division. That group includes the Denver Broncos, a team they open the AFC West slate against Sunday at Sports Authority Field. This contest will pit strength vs. strength on several occasions, which should keep things close. Starting division play off with a win would go a long way in achieving the Raiders ultimate goal.
