What are some historic games between these two that come to mind? Not just the obvious ones from late-'60s/early-'70s & early-'90s but also any from outside those eras.
Uh The Chiefs beat The Raiders.

If Chiefs beat Miami in that hypo-1st-rounder, correct me if wrong, I think they would have gone straight to Jacksonville the following week. Either way, quite an informative post! Interesting what-ifs as well.
Hmm, let me think about this. I don't think so. In real life, #6 Miami was the lowest seed in the divisional round, so they went to #1 Jacksonville. Tennessee (#4 ) travelled to #2 Indianapolis.

In my hypothetical scenario, #3 Kansas City would have been advancing along with Tennessee. The wild card Titans are now the lowest remaining seed (despite a 13-3 record) so they travel to the #1 team, Jacksonville.

The Steelers could have gotten that 2 seed if they hadn't screwed up against the Saints/Raiders earlier that season.

I am finally getting around to watching this game as I have been busy, but I think the NFL has been listening to the complaints about the awful uniforms on Thursday night games, and may have scrapped the concept and are getting back to retro or classic unis. TI like the classic Raiders uniforms with the silver numbers and black trim.

The Raiders jerseys were nice but white pants??? The Chiefs, who have one of the best unis in the league when they're worn properly, looked ridiculous in the all red blood clot combination.

The Raiders and Chiefs outfits on Thursday night were planned in the summer.

The Rams-Seahawks game should be fun although most at this forum, judging from prior comments, will dislike it.

Last time the Raiders wore white pants they were 1-13 (1962). Nice move.
