By Paul Zimmerman I've always liked Oakland-Denver matchups.
Strange things happen.
It's particularly interesting now, because they're the only teams in the AFC West that have beaten anybody, and the division was a head scratcher for the preseason handicappers, who decided that any of four teams could win it. Two of those teams, Kansas City and Seattle, are 0-2. Denver beat the Raiders twice last year, the first win coming in Oakland when Brian Griese got word he was starting two hours before kickoff. Griese led the Broncos to the winning field goal in the fourth quarter. The second victory came in overtime in the snow at Mile High.
