Who do you got in Week 8?
Well, I’m on a mini-streak as I have correctly predicted the past two Las Vegas Raiders’ games after stumbling out of the gates, whiffing on their first five games.
So, now, both the Raiders themselves and myself are 2-5.
Onto the Week 8 and the Kansas City Chiefs.
I actually don’t thin this is going to be a blowout even though the Chiefs are 6-0. Kansas City has major injuries on offense. So, many of its games have been close.
The Raiders will be sky high for this game. But I think the Chiefs will be as well.
Yes, Kansas City, which is 5-0 at Allegiant Stadium including last season’s Super Bowl, is coming off a big win at San Francisco. But Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes will have this team ready to face the Raiders, especially coming off their home Christmas Day loss to the Raiders when the last time these two teams met.
Here’s my prediction:
Chiefs 20, Raiders 13.
Now, it’s your turn.
