Look, Mikey, we all feel REAL bad about that official getting in the way and allowing Allen to score that touchdown, but seeing you guys got several undeserved breaks from the officials against the 49ers, I wouldn't be too quick to bring that up if I were you. I do believe that four sacks on Elway may have rattled him just enough to put him off his game, but that's the way it works, ain't it? Personally, I think Wilson sucks the big one, but the fact of the matter is, Marcus Allen more than makes up for Wilson's short-comings, and the defense is more than a match for John 'The Punk' Elway's arm. The only reason the game was as close as it was is because of all the penalties the Raiders commit, and even so they managed to win the game (as always) in the final moments of the game. (And how about Rod Martin's superior coin-toss ability?) I'm not real worried about the Raiders winning their division. They've got a much easier schedule for the rest of the year than the Broncos, so even if the Broncos win the second game, I doubt it will make much difference. And if it will make a difference, don't be too sure the Raiders won't make the extra effort needed to settle the issue once and for all. They're never quite as dangerous as when they're dead! (And if any of you bozo Bronco fans pull another snowball stunt, don't be surprised if Lyle Alzado comes off the bench with an iceberg, and heads in your direction.)
