Oakland is coming off a win but probably the worst thing that could have happened in terms of their chances this final weekend is that the Chiefs still have something to play for.

It is the final week of the season and even though Kansas City has been one of the great surprises this year they have a lot to play for. A win seals the division and to seed up in the AFC.
Oakland Raiders
Oakland beat Denver last week and I suppose it could be looked on as something that they have won three of their final six games. The most impressive was a win against Pittsburgh, but that team has struggled at times.
In the win over the Broncos the Raiders were slightly outgained. The probably would have lost but for the two interceptions that Case Keenum offered up. They were able to run the ball though.

Defense has been a problem all season – not a surprise when you trade away one of the best defensive players in the league. The last time they played the Chiefs they gave up 40 points.
This does not look like a good spot for the Raiders to close the regular season with a win. However, there is no reason for them to be resting any players or anything like that.
Kansas City Chiefs
Once again the Chiefs showed that having a high powered offense is not always enough. They lost to Seattle 38-31 on Sunday night. This is a good situation to get an easy win to close the season though.
The loss exposed what we all know about Kansas City. They can score quickly and with the best of them but they can give it all back just the same. Their defense does not seem championship quality of close to it.

Kansas City is doing a pretty good job getting a ground game even without Kareem Hunt but they are not the same team without him. They still have elite skill talent but miss that burst element in the run game.
Against a bad Oakland team Kansas City is in a great spot to lick their wounds and get ready for the playoffs. There are question marks about this group though.

4* Free NFL Betting Prediction: Kansas City -9
I think the strategy for the Chiefs will be to really turn it on for a half and then coast. I think they can put enough points on the board to make it stick.
