Chiefs vs. Raiders preview, interviews with former Chiefs players

And they're...

Look, I'll say this.

I know what a lot of people are saying about the Raiders.

I brought this up earlier in the week.

Their combined record of opponents they beat are 1-8.

Now, I think the Saints are one of those teams whose...

As a team, they're better than their record shows.

All three of their games have come down to the wire.

Now, the Dolphins, the Chargers, who would have thought beating the Chargers would not be anything impressive? I mean, hell, over the years, the Chiefs have beat the Raiders so many times, it's been considered unimpressive.

The Chiefs, I mean, listen, we in Kansas City, we love to brag about the fact that the Chiefs are undefeated.

Well, Mahomes specifically is undefeated inside Allegiant Stadium.

including a win in Super Bowl 58 where the Chiefs won a Super Bowl in the Raiders' house before the Raiders could even play a playoff game there.

I mean, how poetic is that? The same year when the Raiders beat the Chiefs on Christmas and they bragged about that, well, I think a Super Bowl win outweighs a holiday win, in my book at least.

I remember a time when Raiders fans used to brag about who had more Super Bowl trophies.

You certainly are not getting that from Raider Nation.

Now it's, oh, well, it took you guys 50 years.

Well, the Raiders are coming up on 42, 43 years since their last Super Bowl win.

So it's a...

It's been a while for them.

This is one of the hottest starts the Raiders have had in quite some time.

Now, yes, they've made the playoffs a couple of times, 2016 and 2021.

Both ended badly.

The one against the Bengals in 2021, that was not bad.

I mean, they had a chance in that one.

But overall, they just haven't had much to look forward to.
