The line in this game is inflated due to pre-season expectations. The raiders only have to hail a cab to get to the stadium, and should be 3-2 this season. 14th in total offence against 23rd for the 49ers, and this is a must win for both teams. San Francisco will see 8 in the box all game, while a non-blitzing man scheme should work against Alex Smith and this receiver core. This spread is a close to a sure thing as you will see this week.
