Mike & Mike Underrating The Raiders

I guess this would be what Twitter is for, but I don't Tweet and therefore this is where I will put this thought.
Is it really saying something that the announcers for the Chargers/Raiders Monday night game think the Raiders are getting really lucky to be tied near the end of the third quarter? All they have talked about is how poorly San Diego is playing. At one point one of the Mikes said the Raiders had dominated the game and it was tied 10-10. What does that say about their impression of what Oakland would be like this year?
Don't get me wrong, it is Oakland. So I don't think anyone except crazy Raiders fans were expecting much. But you still need to give them some credit that it is possible the Chargers aren't playing well because of what the Raiders are doing, not just because of dumb luck.
Mike and Mike must have just assumed the Raiders were horrific to say they are dominating a tie game.

Well it looks like Mike and Mike weren't underestimating Oakland. The Raiders do actually suck.
