Result: Win
This is a 10* BLOCKBUSTER on the Oakland Raiders.

While I won't go so far as to call for its first win of the season, I do think that Oakland will keep this one a lot more competitive than what the oddsmakers are leading us to believe and like the Raiders to at the very least keep this one close enough to sneak in through the back door down the stretch with what I feel is a healthy amount of points afforded to them here. Talk about two teams moving in opposite directions. The Chiefs have postseason aspirations and can ill afford a letdown here as they look to notch their sixth straight win. The Raiders are looking to avoid a 17th straight loss. KC is coming off a 24-20 win over Seattle and I think is primed for a letdown here. A short week on national television after beating the defending champs, I think Oakland can take advantage. Also note, this is a "look ahead" spot as well as Kansas City will play the Broncos in a revenge scenario under the lights in front of the home town crowd next week. KC is not unaware of the fact that this is a "trap" game, but despite how much teams say they are prepared for these types of contests, invariably they're not. Think about it. You just beat the defending champs, a few days later you have to play the absolute dregs of the league while looking ahead to a prime time matchup vs. an arch nemesis. From a situational standpoint, it doesn't get much better than this. It hasn't been all doom and gloom for Oakland either, it's actually allowed just 12 sacks this year, which ranks second fewest in the league. And that's good news for the continued development of rookie Derek Carr, who has shown flashes of his College brilliance at times this year. Last week Carr was 16 of 24 for 172 yards in a chess match loss with San Diego. And to say this is a "revenge" game for Oakland would obviously be a massive understatement. A fantastic situational dual spot wager, play on OAKLAND.
