The Kansas City Chiefs are on a roll, winners of five straight. You have to wonder how much they have left in the tank though, coming off such a taxing win on Sunday. They will be asked to cover a whole bunch of points on the road in Oakland tonight, in a game that might prove to be a trouble spot. I like the home team getting the points.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Situational/Motivational - The Raiders played hard in a 13-6 loss at San Diego last week, and they also came close to upsetting the Chargers at home in Week 6. Still in pursuit of that elusive first win, don't expect Oakland to just roll over at home against the Chiefs.

2. Look-Ahead Spot - The Chiefs have moved in to a tie with Denver at the top of the AFC, and they play the Broncos next Sunday at Arrowhead. They come off a tough, physical game against the Seahawks, and could be in for a let down here on the short week.

3. X-Factor - The underdog is 11-3 ATS in the last 13 meetings between these two teams.

Selection: This is a play on the Oakland Raiders (8*)
