The Raiders are expected to have Garoppolo back under center this week after he missed last week’s game with a back injury. Even with that in play, the fact remains that Las Vegas still is dead last in the league in rushing offense, making them rather one-dimensional. The Raiders have struggled in the turnover game, ranking 31st by committing 15 turnovers while they are 30th in takeaways with five. Detroit should have no problem bottling up the Raiders’ run game as they are second in the league in run defense. Since they currently own a modest record of 3-4, the vast majority of people tend to watch their step when criticizing this Vegas team. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Raiders are allowing nearly ten points per game more than the Ravens. Their pass defense is Top 5, allowing just 187.4 yards per game, however, that number is greatly misleading as six of the seven teams they have faced have a starting quarterback who ranks 16th or lower in passing yards this season. They also have some questions in their defensive backfield entering this game, with starters Nate Hobbs (ankle) and Marcus Peters (back) both limited in practice this week. Goff should have a field day in this one. But make no mistake about it, the Raiders are one of the worst teams in football, and this week, they draw a matchup against the Lions in primetime, who are hot and bothered coming off a brutal let-down loss, likely seeking a statement win at home under the bright lights. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ First-half spreads have been excellent for the Lions all year as they are 5-2 against the spread. In the second half they typically revert to a more conservative game script and their against-the-spread performance reflects it.
