NFL Odds - Oakland Raiders (+10) vs. Denver Broncos (-10)

This is an NFL
betting line to jump on as the Oakland
Raiders actually
played a very good game versus the Detroit
Lions last Sunday. The Denver
Broncos squeaked
out a win against the Buffalo Bills, but, in
all honesty, didn’t look all strong.
In any case, one of the little known trends
in the NFL is that the Raiders do very well against
the NFL betting spread after a home game in September.
The trend is perfect this week as the Raiders
historically play their rivals, the Broncos,
the Chiefs and the Chargers (who are tough no
matter where the game is).
So, where is your
money going to go? It’s
a no-brainer. Getting 10 points against the spread
on an Oakland Raider team after a home loss against
a Denver Bronco team that just might not be as
good offensively as they were last year is almost
a gift.
Remember, the Raider’s defense is still
very good. Sure, they gave up a ton of points
versus the Detroit Lions last Sunday, but the
Lions have tons of weapons. The Broncos shouldn’t
come close to scoring as many points against
the Oakland Raiders as the Lions did.
Also, the Raiders bring in a much improved offense
over the Aaron Brooks led disaster of last year.
No matter what your personal feelings are about
either Josh McCown or Daunte Culpepper, you have
to agree that they are both a step up from Mr.
Brooks.
Oakland may have found a new star at wide receiver
as Ronald Curry caught the ball ten times last
week for 133 yards and 1 touchdown. LaMont Jordan
averaged 4.7 yards per carry. McCown threw two
picks, but still completed over 70% of his passes.
True, the Bronco’s defense is much better
than the Lions’ D, but that shouldn’t
bother you.
Check out the scores
from last year’s
games:
Denver 13, Oakland 3
Denver 17, Oakland 14
What these scores
show is that the Raiders played Denver tough
in last year’s games with
a terrible offense and a young defense. It makes
no sense to bet Denver –10 against the
spread in this game when there is some doubt
as to whether Denver will muster two touchdowns
against Oakland.
If the Raiders improve just a bit on the offensive
side of the ball this Sunday, they might even
steal the game. In any case, the BetUS football
betting line of +10 for the Raiders is something
that should fire up any NFL bettor.
