Absolutely sickening result for the Chiefs. But they gave away too many chances to put up points in the first half.
Thats two road games they've given away this year, not good. Oh well at least they didn't lose by the 37.5 point margin that the Raiders had been winning at the past couple weeks. Irrelevent though, it looks like the Chargers are going to make a run. If they could just get bad special teams play they'll run away with the Division.

I just got back from the Raiders-Chiefs game. Fantastic atmosphere! Really sluggish first half and the fans were calling for Gradkowski right away. How about Jacoby Ford! In past years, he would have been a first or second round pick, but in the 4th round, he's great value. That kick return for a touchdown was electrifying and obviously the turning point.
What a big win. Despite some really tough calls going against the Raiders (the terrible PI call in the first half makes you wonder if conspiracy theories about the league v. Raiders isn't true... same with the "fumble" by Miller on the punt return), they stayed focused and put together a tying and winning drive.
It was my wife's first NFL game and the fans around us couldn't have been nicer and more hospitable. Great day and it's great to be 3-0 in the division!
Raaaaaaiiiiiiiiiddddddddeeeeeeerrrrrrrs!

I'm confident that 1st rounder was in play for even less than Seymour just so Davis wouldn't have to pay the premium for a first round draft pick's contract.

Clay Matthews is a stud. The Cowboys are complete garbage. Jerry Jones must be ready to start shooting.

That last play where Witten just stood there and watched Matthews blow by has to make C'MON MAn tomorrow.
The Cowboys have been consistently on there all year!

Interesting that the Chiefs went pass heavy today with more pass attempts than run attempts for I believe the first time this season. I just don't think they are built to win games that way as their WR's aren't very dependable. I realize the half the Raiders roster today was their 2nd stringers but IMO you have to stick with your strengths and that helped the Raiders in that they didn't have to deal with a steady dose of the running game.

The players have obviously quit. Someone has to be made responsible for this mess.

I think their run game getting stuffed a lot changed the decision making, the Raiders held them to 3 yards per carry and the defensive line was dominating the chiefs o line
great win today

What a bunch of quitters the Cowboys are. This is embarrassing. I realize that Phillips and the coaching staff is done it appears that their problems are deeper than that. I don't recall ever seeing a Superbowl contending team ever mail it in this early in the season.

Oh that's excellent. Challenge on an almost definite loss earlier and now you can't challenge a clear win. Ha. Couldn't happen to a better team.

Holy crap. No timeouts so Dallas can't challenge. Unbelievable.
Can Jerry fire Wade at half and name Garrett as an interm HC?

The defensive line has been dominant but it was an impressive effort all around considering both starting cornerbacks were injured, Rolando McClain missed over half the game. DHBust was their most experienced receiver for crying out loud. The bye is coming up at the perfect time as this team needs to get their starters back.

Ya...the players.
No question Philips is gone, but these guys have simply no "care" in them, and that is astounding of a pro football player, nevermind the Dallas frickin Cowboys.
As a Packer fan I love it obviously and love the fact they look to be going into the bye at 6-3 with the myriad of injuries they have sustained this season thus far.
Still though, the Cowboy players should be absolutely ashamed of the way they have played. Just horrendous.

If Wade Phillips isn't a complete idiot, the Cowboys are only down two scores right now.

We've been asking that question since halftime of Week 1 when the Cowboys were running plays for no reason before the half and fumbled so that Washington could get a free TD.

I ordered a #52 jersey just this past Thursday. Was waffling between him and Finley, but Matthews is everything I admire about pro football players....and it doesnt hurt he is a USC alum.
