Oakland ML?

[biggerleaffan]

Just wondering, I think the Raiders ML could be a good pick this week...Raiders have a good rushing attack and if they can rattle the Pit D they can do some damage..Oakland D also averages like less than 200 passing yds/game against...
Thoughts?

Steelers will roll; lay the 7 points.

I am a dog player. But no way I think they beat Pitt, especially after them losing last week. These teams are more predictable than you think. Pitt is a team I follow & have since childhood.

I knew Pitt would lose last week. Balty lost & if Pitt won it would put them in a good size lead, so I knew they would lose cause thats how this shit works. They will win this week

I am leaning towards Pittsburgh and the over in this game after looking at some historical numbers.

Pittsburgh is 62-17 SU (78%) at home since 2002
Pittsburgh is 14- 4 SU (77%) against West Coast teams at home since 2002

Was interested in checking results of Oakland team traveling to play East Coast team.

Oakland is 5-18 SU (22%) at East Coast team since 2005
Oakland is 21-41 SU (34%) at East Coast team since 1994

I went old school paper and pencil to find season by season using The Football Database so I can't guarantee 100% accuracy, but thought these were pretty interesting numbers and wanted to share.

I would just take the points.

I like the Raiders in this game.

Just remember how normal QB's preform vs. that D as opposed to Brady

[tad0matic]

my books giving oak 7.5, I'm thinking backdoor maybe. certainly not ML

[ParlayJunkie]

No way Oakland in this spot.

Pittsburgh will come back and win after being outplayed big time by the Patriots. Oakland is improved but they aren't a playoff team. Pittsburgh is. I can see this being a blowout in favor of Pittsburgh

[crustyme]

i guess no one remembers last season when raiders went into heinz field and beat them 27-24.

and pitt was in the mist of a losing streak just like now. wouldnt count out the raiders.

I don't know how you can like Jason Campbell going on the road in Pitt.

At least the steelers have injuries so there's always hope.

Even as a Die hard raider i find it difficult for the raiders to win @pittsburgh but i think theyll keep it close...dont see a blowout so oak may cover 24-20 pitt

That was with a winner not a loser.

I don't even think Oakland ML +277 has enough value to pull the trigger on it.
