Q: Will the Raiders win a game this season?
A: Let's put it this way: Oakland has a better chance of going 0-for-2006 than either the Bears or the Colts do of running the table in the opposite direction. In the Raiders' 12 remaining games, they play both 2005 Super Bowl teams and have eight games against teams that posted winning records last season. As bad as things have been thus far for Art Shell's disinterested team, it's about to get really ugly, with trips to Denver, Seattle, Kansas City and Denver and home games against the Steelers and the Broncos coming in the next seven weeks.
Oakland's two best shots at victory are a Week 7 home game against Arizona, which will likely be 1-5 and desperate for a win when it arrives in the Bay Area, and a Week 13 visit from Houston, which currently has a nine-game road losing streak. If the Texans drop the Raiders to 0-12, history, in the form of the NFL's first 0-16 season, will be within Oakland's grasp. The Raiders close their schedule at Cincinnati, home against St. Louis and Kansas City and at the Jets.
Just lose, baby.
