Raiders’ Maxx Crosby Gives Strong Take on Chiefs’ Kenneth Walker III : heavy

“He’s been running the ball really well,” Crosby told reporters on Sept. 30. “He’s off to a great start. Everyone knows him. He was a Super Bowl MVP. He’s had a lot of success in this league. I played him in 2022 in Seattle, and he had a pretty good game. He’s extremely shifty. He’s quick, fast, and has great vision. He’s patient as a runner….

That would be tight end Noah Gray. When looking back at the performance against the Dolphins, Gray truly had a notable impact. If not for some of his plays, Kansas City may have failed to extend drives or their lead in certain moments. Additionally, the Chiefs’ quarterback felt comfortable when targeting Gray, as other answers led to shaky results...

Patrick Mahomes: Raiders’ 3-0 record is for real, expecting a hostile environment Sunday : nbcsports

“I love playing football. It doesn’t matter to me,” Mahomes said. “I love the Chiefs fans traveling, it’s always cool to see the red in the stadium and hear “Home of the Chiefs” in the national anthem, but, at the end of the day, it’s about playing football. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a very hostile environment, trying to take it back to those Oakland Raiders days. I’m excited just for the challenge, you know? They’ve playing great football, you can see it on tape. That 3-0 record’s real. They’ve been playing great the entire season and, for us, it’s another step, another challenge we have to go up there and match.”

Morning guys!

So for the Chiefs’ song this week, I wrote a tribute for Kenneth Walker. It’s nothing really about the Raiders, but K9 has earned it and I was thrilled to write it. Cool 80’s song, too.

Presenting: “Walker is Rampagin'” (to the Bangles’ “Walk Like an Egyptian”) – https://arrowheadguys.com/song-parody-walker-is-rampagin-to-the-bangles-walk-like-an-egyptian-2026-season-week-4-kc-at-lv/

Please read, rate, comment, share. (I also gave specific people I’d like this shared with on Twitter X if someone would). And as always… GO CHIEFS!

We always play our division closer than I’d like. (Except for week 1, which I’m still psyched that we stomped on Denver and broke their will. Because you have to break horses before you can train them).

There are reasons Kirk Cousins isn’t a Viking or Saint. He shows his true self with a few picks as our pass rush hits home. Chiefs 27, Raiders 17.
