The Atlanta Falcons travel to Oakland to take on the most dysfunctional franchise in the league. The Oakland Raiders are just terrible. They have talent on both sides of the ball, but they are an awful team. I’m not sure what Al Davis and the Raiders’ coaching staff needs to do to fix them, but they need to do it quickly.
For the second time this year, the New Orleans Saints lost a game because of their kicker. I hate to point out Martin Grammatica’s faults, but, seriously, he can’t make a 46 yarder in a dome? Come on, Martin. It was absolutely ridiculous how the Saints committed nine penalties in the first half of their Monday night loss versus the Minnesota Vikings.
The San Diego Chargers play the Oakland Raiders for the first time this season on Sunday. Even though both teams are 1 and 2 for the year, the Chargers are starting to look like one of the better teams in the AFC Conference while the Raiders, although not playing terrible football, can’t close the deal.
