Smart money says it will be their last game of the season, against Denver.

if Denver wins enough games to not have to play their starters.
But my dad told me he thinks the 49ers might be the one team they beat.

to draw back some of their fan base; I've noticed there is a dearth of Raider Nation paraphernalia being sported this year and that's not good for the bottom line.

Being old enough to remember the great Raider teams of the 70s and early 80s, it is just sad to see what the franchise has become.

Perhaps Carr and Mack will be the starting point of a resurgence.

if they only had a functioning O. If I were a SD fan, I'd be worried; they should've beaten the Raiders by more than a TD (especially at home).
As for the Raiders, I'm almost speechless now. It's a shame that this team hasn't even had a winning record since I was in middle school. When will they stop being garbage? When will the revolving door of coaches, QBs, etc. quit?
