    I think even I might be taking the Raiders this week with a spread like that

    In other words, they're taking the points.

    The Raiders D, headed by Warren Sapp, who has been outstanding this year, won't let our O blow them out. We have a very good shot to win, but not by more than 7-10....

    Sapp is not what he used to be and all their tongues will be hanging out, since I don't expect their offense to be on the field for any length of time. Our DEF will have a field day on them with a lot of 3-and-outs. They've got a nasty habit of turning the ball over too. I think our DEF gets at least one TD.

    We cover.

    Jets 27
    Raiders 9

    The Raiders give up alot of rushing yards. As soon as teams get up by 10 or so they just turn to the run game since there is not too much threat of Oakland mounting much of an offensive run to get back in it. This also keeps the ball away from the secondary and giving them a chance at a big play. I can see why alot of people would take the 12.5
