Raiders, at this point at 5-4 with the Bengals and Jets the next 2 weeks can get to 7-4. I doubt they win the division but anything is possible. Still have games against KC, Den, LAC, TEN, JAX, CIN, NYJ left. Most difficult will be in KC. They need to go at least 5-2 to make the playoffs.
Competition for the Raiders for the WC are Buffalo who is 6-2 and one of Indy/Hou in the South who are 5-3 and 6-3 respectively. If you are the Raiders, with a head to head loss to Houston, you want them to win the division so that you own the tie break with Indy.
Raiders go the win on TNF, but left points on the board. Carr could had room to run for a 1st down on the opening drive of the 2nd half on 3rd and 2 from inside the 5, but opted for a pass with a tonne of open space on his left available. Not converting on 3rd and short and forced to attempt a 53 yard FG which they missed. Their defence won them that game. They net gave up 13 points with their pick 6 factored. So Carr led them to just 19 points and was gift 2 turnovers in great field position.
