PRO FOOTBALL REPORT / WEEKDAY UPDATE : RAIDERS : Team Is a Victory Away From Playoffs
The Raiders can clinch a playoff berth with a victory over the Cincinnati Bengals Sunday at the Coliseum.
If the regular season ended today, the Raiders would play the Miami Dolphins in a wild-card game, the winner playing the Buffalo Bills.
The Raiders defeated the Dolphins at Miami last month, 13-10, and lost to the Bills at Buffalo in October, 38-24.
After blowing a 24-14 lead against the Bills, the Raiders predicted that the teams would meet again in the playoffs.
Injury report: Cincinnati running back James Brooks (shoulder), safety David Fulcher (back), running back Harold Green and running back Ickey Woods (bruised ribs) are probable, but running back Craig Taylor (ankle) is questionable. Safety Ricky Dixon is out with broken left leg.
