Raiders QB Carson Palmer Total Passing Yards Over 295.5 [-130]
Courtesy of Bovada, about five yards lower than the other books I have seen FYI. Palmer is going to have to throw to keep up with the Saints, we know this. Yes, New Orleans likely won't be as good on the road as their recent home surge - but this is an offense that should still drill a leaky Oakland pass defense. Likewise, Oakland should be licking their chops against a Saints pass D giving up over 300 yds per game. This defense has given up at least 300 yards to opposing QBs in all but three of their nine games this season. Those three were to anemic passing games in Philly, KC & Carolina who all still had 248 or more yards. Palmer has been forced to throw 106 times the past two weeks, both blowing by the 300 yard mark. He has topped this number six times this season, five in regulation. With McFadden out and hell, even if he was in - their running game has been inept which should mean more through the air for Palmer. Hot doggggggg!
