Week 10 Preview: Kansas City Chiefs @ Oakland Raiders

It has been a long and disappointing season for the Raiders thus far as they haven't really made any kind of improvement from last year's team and sit at the bottom of the AFC West yet again with a 2-6 coming into week 10 against Matt Cassel and the Kansas City Chiefs.

The biggest question that all Raiders fans are asking this season is:

When will JaMarcus Russell be benched?

A few years back Raiders fans thought they had something to look forward to and hope for the future after Oakland selected LSU quarterback JaMarcus Russell number one overall. Russell seemed like the total package with a cannon for an arm and a Ben Roethlisberger like frame that would make him hard to bring down, but it hasn't been his body or his strong arm that has let the Raiders down, it has been his terrible accuracy and inability to lead this team.

Along with Russell the Raiders were able to get their hands on a promising young running back Darren McFadden last season, but have yet to really see what the kid can do because of injury problems.

Needless to say, the Oakland Raiders mess and they are not a team you consider if you are an avid sports bettor and are trying to make some extra dough with NFL betting.

There is a definitely an upside to the Raiders despite all their faults as their defense is quite good when it has time to rest on the sidelines, but that hasn't happen as of late due to the inconsistent play by Russell and the offense.

This week the Raiders might be able to get a much needed victory against the lowly Kansas City Chiefs in week 10. The Chiefs looked to have a promising season coming into this year with the addition of quarterback Matt Cassel from New England and new offensive minded head coach Todd Haley, but the combination of the two in Kansas City has not resulted in more than one win this season.

Even though both of these teams aren't all that entertaining to watch this season, this matchup between these AFC West rivals might just be a game to watch as the Chiefs and the Raiders will not want to lose this game just to be able to say they are not the worst team in the AFC West.
