Oakland Raiders @ Seattle Seahawks

Not happy laying -120 on a 5 unit play but it's better than getting +2.5 later in the week. Shouldn't matter, Raiders should spank Seattle here. Locking this in now. 
  • Raiders +3 -120 (5x) +130 (1x)

Why do you think the Raiders will spank them? You've been hot so I'm interested in your reasoning.

Look within the games, Oakland is the better team and we are catching points.. Seattle is just a name. Earl Thomas kept their defensive system in check despite the team losing everyone else, but he's gone now. Rams shoulda scored 40 on them if they didn't turn the ball over in the end zone

Could not agree more.  Seattle was highly motivated and played their behind*s off yesterday to beat the Rams and repay them for the humiliating loss in Seattle last year.  There is no way the Seahawk's can get up anywhere close to yesterday for this game.  That should be all the edge the Raiders need.

BOL!

This will be a snooze fest. 4,781 miles of jetlag. Thanks for your post, I'm stupid and didn't even realize it was across the pond. Probably buying off. GL

That is "try to beat the Rams".

Cheers brother... 

Shocking how large a percentage of these Wembley games have been one sided. Perhaps alluding to one team acclimating far better than the other team for whatever reasons... lets be on the right side;) hehe

So, who is flying out the soonest and which team is waiting later to fly out?

The "Acclimation Effect" is certainly something to take into account here.

If this game was in the States at Oakland, I certainly would be taking them...but...I'm very concerned about the "Wembley Effect" as well.

The acclimation effect has little to do with finding a winner for this game. Rather it is the team that gets on the plane with more motivation to win and after yeasterdays loss against an elite team like the Rams League Capper is on the right side with the Raiders

some analysis you have there. why do people feel they have to decode his technique and try to illegitimate his streak? he's capping at an insane rate right now can't people just be happy for him and everyone thats following him rather than try and make him seem like he's just getting lucky? seems lots of people are jealous I'm not sure.

Raiders looked pathetic yesterday, turning the ball over at critical times and the coach calling for a pass play from the one-yard line gifted by the refs for an iffy pass interference call.  Players were not moving fast when they were down plenty in the fourth quarter.  Gruden seems to have lost the team, too.  Perhaps my thinking is the typical square reaction after watching only the latest game.

Why is this game not starting about 4 hours earlier than East Coast games as in the past years?  This game seems to start at 1 p.m. Eastern Time.

Oakland is the better team?  Couldn’t disagree with you more here 
Seattle better coach 
Seattle better quarterback 
Seattle better defense, even minus earl 
Oakland couldn’t even put up 300 total yards against the charger defense who were bottom five in the league in points given up going into yesterday.  ten points vs that “stout” defense.  Lol.  
these teams were only separated by .5 game in Vegas’ win totals to start the year.   

you are on a run like I’ve never seen before.  So it’s funny I’m arguing here since you are obviously doing something right.  but Seattle most definitely put everything they had into that game yesterday only to fall short by two bonehead offensive penalties late in that game when they were in Fg range. Opened at -1. Now at three. Maybe the public will continue to rise that line and we can get Oakland at 3.5 before the big money brings it back down. Hehe.  

End rant

Yes, I noticed that too, that those London games tend to be one sided often. Raiders being 1-4 are desperate to scrape up any win they can get. Their only problem is that they are the Raiders.

I agree with how bad the raiders are but that game yesterday took a lot out of them and they have to travel 12 hours to London now. gonna be a tough game for Seattle with the worst o line in the Nfl

Seattle’s o line may FINALLY be coming around 
They just ran for 190 yards against the rams 
I believe they’ve had three 100 yard rushers in three straight games which they haven’t done since 2012 which is horrendous.  as long as they don’t get penalized like they always do , maybe just maybe Jon gruden falls to 1-5 and deeeeply regrets leaving the booth even though he’s making millions now

Seattle O line has quietly been improving each week.  Not saying that they are great but they are starting to get better.

I think they can handle the Raiders ok.

Just my opinion.
