Still not sure I'm comfortable throwing my money on OAK, but I really think they cover here. Yeah SD looked good last week, but they still got 29 scored on them at home and for the second straight week, they faced a weak defense. OAK has played well the last two weeks, and with all the shennanegins that have gone on in this rivalry in past years, this should be a lot closer than most people think. OAK has a very good D (right up there with SD's) and their offense is starting to gel, starting with that run game. Again, still marinating on this one, but if i play it, I've got OAK.

This game should be another easy cover for the Chargers. The Chargers are a playoff team and this is a big division game for them. They can not afford to lose this game, kind of like they couldn't afford to lose to the Jets. The Chargers defense has plenty of new players from last year, but they are still very capable of shutting down Oakland's offense. Their defense continues to improve with each game as they continue to learn how to play together. The offense has been steady all year and although Oakland has a solid defense, the Chargers should be able to control the pace and build a nice lead early. If they are able to do this, which i believe that they will because of the importance of keeping up with the Broncos in the division, Oakland will not be able to climb back in the game. Their offense just isn't built to do this yet. Although the Charger's defense has struggled so far, their secondary is still among the best in the league, and their defensive line isn't too bad either. Also note that against the jets, their defense was very good, but it was their special teams that let them down. They have been at the top of the league in special teams play for the past few seasons, so look for this unit to step up big against Oakland. Throw the home field advantage out the window in this game as the Chargers will dominate from start to finish. Should win again by at least 2 TD's.
Easy play on Chargers +9 or whatever it goes up to

FARGAS hasn't practiced all week. Tommorow's injury report should make it clearer. Michael Bush is solid anyways. I dont think FARGAS will play, didn't play last week.

Over 45 for sure. In fact, i'm going to bet over in all of the SD games. Mediocre defense but good offense. Rivers have been on fire. Those two teams hate each other, it's going to be a physical so you will see big plays on both sides.

I have never seen a more true moneyline with respect to the points in a quite a while. Looks like there's a blowout on the horizon for the Chargers. I'm gonna have to drop some coin on this game and take the Chargers to smoke the Raiders and avoid the Monday night hex for the following week. Power up boys and girls!

No. In the past few meetings the raiders have had an answer to gates by putting huff over the top of gates, but close enough to the line to help with his strongside run responsibilities. meaning the raiders matchup well and know how to stop sd from doing what they want to do. In recent past the raiders have preped well for the chargers and there is no reason to think otherwise.
Teams often play harder for a coach that they view is getting a bum wrap from the ownership...we saw it the last two weeks, these guys are playing their heart out for kiffen...and we saw last night with Oregon State how much heart really does make a difference. On the other side, SD could very well be thinking its in the bag and could be content playing a team with a percieved lack of talent.
8 is another gift (like last week at buffalo) with the public still remembering the mnf game. I know its cliche, but this is not the same team from 4 weeks ago. This line will not go higher than 8. In fact it will come down by game time. If you like the raiders take em now. If you have to bet the chargers, wait till sunday morning and try to get at least -7. I see a potential good middle opportunity because the line could drop to 6.5.
This game will be close with the raiders, even possibly leading well into the second half. SD will win but by one TD and the raiders +7.5 crowd will take it to the bank. But 2 units says Oak covers at half with +4.5 in their pocket. SD is this weeks sucker bet cant you all see that???GLTA

Kiffen is in his second year and he's already a lame-duck head coach.
LAME Kiffen has now been anointed to be the Raiders latest scapegoat, once this season (like the past several seasons) comes crashing down around them.
The players see the handwriting on the wall and they likely don't give a shit about their head-coach.
They'll probably lose big, later today. Cheers.

NOBODY should take the raiders.. if anybody watched last weeks game against he bills... the raiders had something like 10 first downs and bills had 25 the bills controlled the game handled the last drive and beat them by 1.. San Diego wil cover because. they are hungrier than the bill were last week... inner state rivals... Oakland Offense just sucks...

Anyone that is even THINKING about takign the raiders I mean seriously people, do not come to sports chat websites it is doing you no good.
I mean where in your minds do you get the idea to take the raiders against a 1-2 charger team. Are you insane? I think this is called over-capping, its a sick disease that will send you to GA

I like the Chargers momentum coming into this one. Although it is tough to play at the Raider Nation I think that they have bigger problems. I feel for coach Kiffen wondering when his last day of coaching the Raiders will be day after day.
I like my chances with the Chargers in this one..
Chargers at the half -4
Aloha and good luck to all
