Chiefs hold on for 19-17 win over the Raiders

[True Dough]

A rare Friday afternoon game.

KC moves to 11-1, the same as the Lions. Top two contenders in the NFL, record-wise.

Which do you think is the superior team?

1. Lions

KC’s luck has to run out eventually.

[True Dough]

9. You're right, a good number of those 11 wins for KC

could be chalked up to luck. But I don't know that their good fortune won't last until the end of the season. They are gradually getting some injured players back too.

2. Lions will win the SuperBowl

If they’re not defeated by the Lions.

10. Dan?

Dan Campbell? Is that you?

13. Sorry no

3. Lower case (w) in my book

The Chiefs looked like they were in trouble at the end, but they pulled it off, and a win is a win.

6. Chiefs are scrappy lucky

[Brother Buzz]

7. Wasn't last weeks victory close, too?

[Clouds Passing]

8. Squeaked a win in Carolina. Lost against buffalo the week before, their only loss.

12. They were

definitely in trouble. Like you say lower case (w).
I don’t think Mahomes looked happy.

4. It's impressive, though, how many squeakers KC manages to win.

They must have a certain sort of mojo to do this, though I don't think it'll stand up against Detroit's steamroller. We shall see....

5. Chiefs been squeaking

Going on three years now.

[True Dough]

11. Kansas City Squeakers

does have a certain ring to it.

[True Dough]

14. Believe this!

[Maxheader]

15. Mahomes seems to get his mojo back...

occasionally. But when I compare his air attack with some of these new guys. He seems to have really lost something.

[True Dough]

16. I think what he's lost

is a decent receiving corps.

KC just traded for an aging DeAndre Hopkins about a month ago. He's been their top guy since then. Rookie Xavier Worthy is blazing fast but not consistent yet. Juju Smith-Schuster has been battling injuries.

Rashee Rice has missed much of the season and Hollywood Brown has missed every game this year due to injury.

Travis Kelce's age is really starting to show at 35.

Mahomes has had few reliable targets most of this year.
