Oakland Raiders vs Denver Broncos- Monday Night Football
As of this writing (Wednesday) I am still seeing a few -14.5 all the way to -16 on Denver. Normally you get my selection in the Final Thoughts section, but you will get it right here to start the night off.
We are taking the MOST POINTS you can get on the OAKLAND RAIDERS.
Yes, you read that right. We are backing the Raiders here. Now, I usually try to break up my article in why I like 1 team and not the other. But for this match-up, we are going to have a pot-luck of information bouncing off one another.
So we are taking Oak-Town here. Believe it or not, the Raiders are actually 7-1 ATS last 8 trips to Denver. The road team has covered 8 of the last 10 in the series. So we have the mighty Broncos, right now probably everyone's, along with Seattle, the teams to be in the Super Bowl.
Denver off a cross-country beat down of the New York Giants and Manning's younger brother Eli. That win on the heels of Peyton's 7 touchdown opening night. No bones about it, this Broncos team can score in bunches. I will just put it out there that I was on both the Ravens and the Giants. I will doggy-up again here with Oakland.
So the Raiders trot out Terrell Pryor at QB. The kid was respectable on the road in Indy and at home vs the Jaguars. I get that both of those teams aren't in Denver's league. I can hear the Broncos backers right now. The defense picked off 2 Super Bowl MVP Quarterbacks Flacco and Manning 6 times! What are they going to against this kid!
Denver is averaging 45ppg so far this year. And yes, they should be able to dominate the Raiders here. But I like to think outside the box. And I will grab a big double digit division dog nearly every step of the way. I said in my early analysis of Denver and I will say it again. I think the defense is a bit weaker than last year. Teams can score on them. They can't count on 3 turnovers a game and punt returns for TDs every week.
Two plus touch-downs is a nice chunk of points to start with. I will grab the OAKLAND RAIDERS and the +16 as of this writing.
