    Is anyone afraid to take the Patriots @ Raiders this Sunday?
    Are all the Patriots Offense healthy to play?
    Patriots Defense has been lagging it.
    Raiders play hard and look like the real deal this year.
    Why is the spread starting at -4 for the Pats? Shouldn't it be at least -7?
    Raiders play like the Bills.
    I'm scared......

        What happens if they double team and shut down Walker?

        Patriots have no other weapons.

          Listen bud , I am on Pats -4 bookmakers are gonna get crushed that line should be -7.5 , you tell me what oakland can do to stop the pats offense or tell me what oakland can do to keep up scoring wise.

          Raiders may pull a few surprise plays but thats about it pal


          PATS ALL THE WAY

                classic case of trying to read into a game too much and trying to be a wise guy taking the points .. 4 has no value now if it was plus 7 at home i would say yeah maybe.

                But fact is Patriots are a better team and if you cant see that then your a hamburger

                      good question. i would think they win this game by about 13 points but im even hesitant to take them moneyline.

                        Feel the same, might unload on the moneyline though after I get an idea about the injury reports

                            why do people still discuss patriot games????




                            listen guys, the patriots are 16-3 on OVERS heading back to last season. You just play the over in every one of their games and forget everything else



                            this game will have around 65-70 points just like the bills-pats game

                              Won't hit 65-70, I personally think it will be UNDER 55. NE 31-20

                                Might hit over, both defenses suck

                                  the raiders are averaging about 31 points per game, what makes you think a terrible patriots defense will hold them to less than that with the raiders playing at home???


                                  I also think 31 is too low for the pats. The oakland secondary is awful and brady will look to throw the ball a million times to reassert his dominance after a 4 pick game, I got pats scoring closer to 35-40+

                                    I just gave this game 20 minutes worth of thought, if Brady gets any type of up front protection, there is no reason why he should not shread the Oakland defense.

                                      he always does, the patriots offensive line is just unbelievable as usual



                                      the patriots are an over bettors dream. Very powerful offense that likes to throw the ball 50 times a game (you extend the game by not running too much and eating too much clock) with arguably the best QB in league history. On the other side of the ball, you got a defense that really can't do anything right...can't stop the run, can't play the pass and can't get a pass rush


                                      McFadden might have 200 yards rushing in this one

                                        Laying off. I went against Brady last week, do not want to push my luck. However, I don't like that soft Patriot defense.

                                          Patriots team total over might be a good play depending on the number

                                            Pats are going to be a huge square play. Maybe thats why I love them here. The Raiders are good at getting pressure but their secondary is bad bad bad. Really like the Pats in the first half.

                                                the pats defense has gotta show me something before I can start backing that team again



                                                they might allow 500 yards of offense in this game against a team filled with a lot of explosive athletes

                                                    The Patriots are a more popular team and has had more recent success. They are also a better team. (be carefull) Have you ever heard of Tom Brady???

                                                              Raiders and Over......If Raiders don't cover, OVER almost definitely hits, but there's a good chance you win both

                                                              I actually like Raiders getting points more than the Over but do what you want
