The Raiders :OAK-NFL: are 3-4 with a strong runningback in Darren McFadden and passing attack led by Carson Palmer.  They have scored 139 points in 7 games which isn't bad but not good enough to cover their suspect defense.  Still, there is glimmer of hope in Oakland.  They play in a weak division.  The Broncos appear to be the front runner with floundering San Diego right behind them.  However, Oakland could leap past San Diego with a Chiefs upset on TNF this week.  How could the Raiders schedule play out this season?

Below is the remaining schedule with predicted losses in red and predicted wins in green.  The remaining schedule starts off with the rematch of Super Bowl XXXVII.

Week - Date - Opponent
9 Sun November 4      Tampa Bay Buccaneers                
10 Sun November 11     @ Baltimore Ravens               
11 Sun November 18      New Orleans Saints               
12 Sun November 25     @ Cincinnati Bengals   
             
13 Sun December 2      Cleveland Browns               
14 Thu December 6      Denver Broncos               
15 Sun December 16      Kansas City Chiefs               
16 Sun December 23     @ Carolina Panthers               
17 Sun December 30     @ San Diego Chargers


That outcome leads to an 8-8 record which may even get them to the playoffs in a very weak AFC.  They can beat Denver at home.  The Browns, Chiefs, Panthers, and Chargers are all comparable or weaker teams for Oakland.  Add another upset to the mix and the Raiders could be 9-7.  One thing we do know from the remaining schedule is that long winning or long losing streaks are likely.  Which Raiders team will we see down the stretch?  This one's for Al...

    Today at 03:00:32 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: most fun* stupid autocorrect
    Today at 03:00:50 PM
  • Sportsnut: Well, I look at it this way.  The teams usually don't become available without there being issues.
    Today at 03:01:49 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: hahaha very true. could I package Alvarez and Ozuna for a SP?
    Today at 03:03:13 PM
  • Sportsnut: I have a great nucleus to build around, esp pitching.  Kershaw, Cain, Corbin, with Hudson on the DL and specs like Archie Bradley, Kyle Crick, Skaggs and Barnes, I'm set at SP.  RP is in good shape also.  So need position players.
    Today at 03:05:04 PM
  • Sportsnut: Alvarez?
    Today at 03:05:11 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: Henderson Alvarez*
    Today at 03:05:35 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: I have a lot of SPs, but looking an upgrade
    Today at 03:06:04 PM
  • Sportsnut: meh
    Today at 03:06:14 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: that's why I kind of need to include 1, b/c of the start limit
    Today at 03:06:22 PM
  • Sportsnut: I do like Osuna, but he's a few years away
    Today at 03:06:32 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: I could Vance Worley as well
    Today at 03:06:41 PM
  • Sportsnut: Pretty bad when Everth Cabrera is my top hitter.
    Today at 03:06:52 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: I think he is disproving that lol
    Today at 03:06:56 PM
  • Sportsnut: also struggling
    Today at 03:07:04 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: He has pretty much played his way into a starting spot
    Today at 03:07:20 PM
  • Sportsnut: yes he is.  Miguel Montero is the one I'm scratching my head about.  Top 5 C both of two past years, and still a - number this year.
    Today at 03:07:47 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: he's been around .300 for awhile now
    Today at 03:07:56 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: yeah, im not sure what his deal is
    Today at 03:08:18 PM
  • Sportsnut: Need LoMo to get back to where he was a couple of years ago as well
    Today at 03:08:51 PM
  • Sportsnut: You Seattle?
    Today at 03:08:59 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: sure am
    Today at 03:09:16 PM
  • Sportsnut: no you're not
    Today at 03:09:28 PM
  • Mr.TradeKing: I can add to the deal depending on the deal, but I need to trade Worley or Alvarez in the deal
    Today at 03:10:00 PM
  • Sportsnut: oops had wrong league up.
    Today at 03:10:05 PM

    Today at 03:10:09 PM
  • Sportsnut: Really have no desire to trade pitchers for pitchers at this point.
    Today at 03:11:08 PM
  • Sportsnut: You said Ozuna, not Osuna, right?  My bad
    Today at 03:11:59 PM
