Raider's seven wins last season gets them within striking range of division winning Denver last season prepare to open a 'playoff window' this year.  Led offensively by Derek Carr, Khalil Mack on defense; along with an entire roster coming into their primes. Knowing how big a road division win in primetime can be in meeting their goals.

Kansas City right in the mix last season coming up just short a game back of a Wild Card make a radical move.  Fearing that perhaps the 'window' is closing on the veteran team ownership brings in Glenn 'Pops' Warner IV to lead the Chiefs back to the playoffs.

Game features a pair of rookie linebackers.  Raiders fourteen pick Eric Trevathan taken just before Kansas City picking at fifteen.  When asked if Trevathan was available if he would had taken him?  Warner replied "Spartan (Samuel Diggs) was on my short list we had eyes on him.  We liked Eric too."  Leaving it there.
