At the beginning of his arrival, Pete Carroll was touted as a savior for the Las Vegas Raiders. Carroll, 74, has a strong resume. But there was a reason that the Seattle Seahawks kicked him upstairs. Carroll brought his old Seattle QB, Geno Smith, along. But Smith has been showing his age at 35 and has not been an NFL odds asset. On Thursday, things will get tougher for Carroll as his Raiders visit the Denver Broncos. Denver is threatening the Kansas City Chiefs’ AFC West dynasty. This rivalry series began in 1960 in the AFL.
