Raiders Spotlight

The Las Vegas Raiders snapped their two-game skid last week as they stole one in the final second against the Cleveland Browns as 3-point favorites. At home, the Raider’s offense ranks 24th in points per game, 4th in pass yards, 30th in rush yards, and 7th in yards per play.

Final Say

Las Vegas hasn’t been in the greatest of forms going just 2-5 SU and 1-6 ATS in their last seven games. However, luckily for them they’ll have some history on their side where Denver has gone 0-5 ATS in the last five road games against the Raiders. They are also just 1-7 ATS in their last eight overall against them too. The AFC hasn’t been too kind to the Broncos either where they are just 1-6 ATS in their last seven games against them, while they are just 1-6 SU in their last seven games against an AFC West opponent. The Broncos will be without their best game manager in Bridgewater, so the Raiders get the edge there. In fact, Carr has been doing work against this Bronco team where they’ve won three-straight against them by an average of 12 points per game. Rolling with Carr to keep his team in the playoff hunt.

Pick: Las Vegas Raiders -1
