Heres why Derek Carr continues to downplay Raiders rivalry with Chiefs as they prepare for Week 5 ma

The and have formed one of the NFL's most historic rivalries over the past 60 years as two of the original AFL franchises won a combined five Super Bowl titles. These days, the rivalry is greatly in the Chiefs' favor as Kansas City has taken 14 of the last 16 games since Alan Branch Jersey Andy Reid took over as head coach in 2013. The Chiefs have taken a 65-52-2 record in the series, one the Raiders dominated until Kansas City's recent run of succe s. has experienced his fair share of lo ses in a Raiders uniform, going just 2-10 against the Raiders' AFC Joe Donovan Jersey West rivals since taking over as the team's starting quarterback in 2014. Carr is well aware of his futile record against the Chiefs, downplaying the significance of the rivalry."I mean if we're being honest, to make it a rivalry we gotta win some games here, you know what I'm saying?" Carr Chris Wormley Jersey said this week, . "That would make it a lot nicer. They've had our number for a little bit and it kind of makes us mad."Not only have the Raiders struggled against the Chiefs, but Carr in particular. In 14 starts against Kansas City, Carr has completed just 59.5% of his pa ses with 15 touchdowns and 13 interceptions for a 74.6 pa ser rating -- the lowest against any team he's made three-or-more starts against. The Raiders have Dominique Funchess Jersey been outscored 103 to 22 in their last three meetings. That's all the motivation the Raiders need to change the direction of this rivalry."We're gonna go out there and we're gonna fight, man," Carr said. "And the guys know. Coach (Jon) Gruden talks about it. He makes sure that the young guys know what they're getting into and things like that. They don' Jehu Chesson Jersey t like us, we don't like them, there's not a lot of handshaking between the two. Never has been, never will be probably, even though there are friends on each side. "But when you're playing each other, Chiefs-Raiders, it's not friendly, but we've got to make it a rivalry, if we're gonna be honest we gotta go win some football games against them."
