The Broncos beat up on the Raiders, at Oakland, back in September. At the time, the Broncos were undefeated and playing their best football of the season. While Denver got off to a 6-0 start, Oakland got off to a 1-4 start.

However, since that time, the gap between these teams has narrowed. The Broncos have gone 2-5, both straight-up and against the number, their last seven games. The Raiders have gone 4-4 against the spread, winning three of those games outright.

Off a double-digit loss and with only two wins in their last seven, now the Broncos are being asked to win by two touchdowns. Facing a revenge-minded divisional opponent, I feel that’s asking too much. That’s particularly true given that the Broncos have scored an average of only 17.2 points per game in their six home games.

While its always easy to pick on the Raiders, Ben notes that Oakland is a perfect 3-0 against the spread, the last three times that it was attempting to avenge an earlier loss.

On the other hand, it’s worth pointing out that the Broncos are an awful 3-12 at the betting window, the last 15 times that they faced a team with a losing record. With last week’s loss, they’re also a money-burning 2-7 against the spread, the past few years, when playing in the final four weeks of the regular season.

The Raiders upset the Broncos here last season. Listed as significant underdogs, they won by a score of 31-10. Including that result, they’re a perfect 3-0 against the spread their last three visits here. Consider grabbing all those points …
