 I was holding on to  Oakland will derail NE , but only under the covers

Take Hous. played well and won. I never know what Oakland will show.  Could be a Voodo game. Will be good to watch, but not betting this one.

 

Only one play for me this Sunday. Two teamer with over 49 on this and over 49 1/2 on New England and the Jets. Good luck all.

I'll take the Over on this one...

49 seems like alot but this up tempo no huddle shit has cost me a few unders in ncaa and nfl, if houston stays at -6 they may be the sucker bet of the week cuz they SHOULD roll they raiders by 13

  This game was made to order for the RAIDERS!  After banging heads with the likes of the Steelers & Saints, I see a major letdown by the Texans here.

OAKLAND  + 6 (Major Wager!!)

Andre Johnson being out hurts the over, but I still can't see the Raiders coming in and strongarming this team. It should be a close game, 6 might be too much, but then again, this is the RAIIDAAAAHHHHHRRRSSSSS......................

No Play for me - too many other good games to bet on......

I worked the raiders into a ten team parly along with the over on the falcons and the bills games.  I dont see how this is going over if they are  pounding the rock.

Leaning on Oakland myself at +7

Texans info from a homer here.  If you've watched the Texans the last two years (and specifically paid attention to our horrid secondary last year) then know this...Kareem Jackson will tell you who/what to put money on.  Pittsburgh scored only 10 points last week because he didn't play.  If Kareem plays expect a high score.  Everyone we play throws to HIS side of the field BECAUSE HE SUCKS and they know it.  It usually works....he gets burned on a REGULAR basis.  We here in Houston cannot, for the life of us, understand HOW he made the team and WHY he is a starter.  He is currently listed as questionable for Sunday's game.....(in the name of ALL that is Holy PLEASE don't be ready for Sunday's game).

I think i will go with Oakland.... to cover... With the news of Davis Death, the Raiders Nation will demand a victory... the boys will play their heart out ....

I'm on the RAIDERS +6.

Look for a strong, emotional showing from Oakland this weekend after the death of Big Al Davis.

Also, I'm playing the OVER (48.5)

raiders large, ghost of al will make a presence

Not wagering on this game nor am I a fan of the Raiders just wanted to come in and pay my respects and condolences to the Raider nation

Sorry to hear about Al Davis He was a big part of the NFL movement and I'm sure he will be missed and always respected for what he has done through his lifetime. May he go in peace and may god rest his soul

Aloha

straight up respect from me for you bigdaddyhpd! ^^

Large for the memory of al d. How could they not dominate. Hello brett favres daddah!

Texans -5.5 LEGGO!!

All of the emotional stuff aside, Raiders can't stop the run. Not sure Im on this game but if I had to play it I'd go small on Houston.  Look for Foster and Daniels to take this game over late.

RIP  AL Davis

Thought for sure the raider line would plummet, after news of legendary AL Davis passing today?... it only dropped a half pt here in two vegas books i seen tonight!... thought peeps would be pounding raider nation, figuring they will play extra hard in honor??. guess vegas doesn't really give a shit!

goin wit da raider ground attack with no holding calls, for the cover!  (originally liked texans -5.5 before today)

 

BOL

I like Oakland to win this one for Al, you know they are going to show up to play now

Oakland +7

good opposite read on this game. i think players will rally over mr. davis death and kill them in 1st qt. and half bets..for sure.

much respect AL and family..Raider Nation had a proud owner..but he's not playing, and these arent his guys on the field. I dont see it...outside of Al's passing, and just being a Raider fan (?) Jason Campbell doesnt have it- yes Houston played 2 division games, and there is supposed to be a let down- BUT they are at home, they held Pitt to 10PTS, Johnson is out, Foster is in..???uuummmm no game should be played under but this smells like a ground and pound game- Raiders only scored 13 against a very weak Pats D at home- (the last 99 yard TD was a give away) like ronaldjeremy stated..these kids dont know Al...HOUSTON LARGE..HELL I just talked myself into another play..gotta go

I'm leaning Raiders as well here, Texans a little banged up here and in a letdown spot, I think anyway.  Houston may win but probably won't cover, imo.
