NFL Week 17 Predictions 2010 - Bet Raiders vs Chiefs - Sunday, January 2nd, 1:00pm EST CBS


The NFL week 17 predictions 2010 on the 2010-2011 NFL betting season are out on the Oakland Raiders vs Kansas City Chiefs Sunday afternoon football match-up. This Sunday the Oakland Raiders head to Arrowhead Stadium as a 4 point underdog to battle their AFC West rival Kansas City Chiefs.

The Oakland Raiders offense vs the Kansas City Chiefs defense is a great matchup. The Raiders are 10th in yards and 7th in points, while the Chiefs are 11th in yards allowed and 9th in points allowed. The real matchup is the 2nd ranked rushing offense against the 12th ranked rushing defense. The Chiefs are going to put everyone up on the line to stop this running game. The Raiders have to throw the ball against this 19th ranked passing defense. The NFL week 17 predictions 2010 advantage goes to the Raiders because the Chiefs won't be able to completely stop the running game.

The Kansas City Chiefs offense vs the Oakland Raiders defense is a good matchup, but does favor the Chiefs. The Chiefs are 9th in yards and 11th in points, while the Raiders are 13th in yards allowed and 21st in points allowed. The Raiders are 3rd in passing defense, but that doesn't bother this Chiefs offense that runs the ball. The Chiefs are number 1 in rushing going up against the 29th ranked rushing defense. NFL predictions 2010 advantage goes to the Chiefs.

The special teams are a little interesting. The Raiders are 14th in kickoff return average and 25th in punt return average, while the Chiefs are 27th in kickoff return average and 13th in punt return average. The Raiders are 21st in kickoff return average allowed and 14th in punt return average allowed, while the Chiefs are 6th in kickoff return average allowed and 18th in punt return average allowed. Each matchup is pretty even. I am going to give the alight NFL week 17 predictions 2010 advantage to the Raiders because they have an up and coming dynamic returner who has been tearing it up lately.

This is a good coaching matchup. The Raiders head coach Tom Cable puts some fire into this defense. They do have different ways to getting to the quarterback. This is a great tree of coaching for the Chiefs with Todd Haley, Charlie Weis who is the offensive coordinator, and Romeo Crennel who is the defensive coordinator. Both Charlie Weis and Romeo Crennel are one of the 2 bests in what they do, and they have this team playing very well. This is a good matchup, but I will give the advantage to the Chiefs because of the great experience of this coaching staff.

My NFL week 17 predictions 2010 on the Oakland Raiders vs the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday afternoon football game is out. What a great game this will be. It will be the battle of the running games. It will basically come down to whoever has the better running game will win this game. I believe that team will be the Chiefs. A classic AFC West battle that will go down to the last play of the game, and I will go with the Chiefs because they have the offense that can finish the game. It will be a close game, and I believe the Raiders will keep it close, but the Chiefs win this game 28-27.
