Thoughts on Oakland +7?

[BoutMyMoney]

i told myself i'd stay away from Oakland the rest of the season... i'm 0-2 betting on them this season... but this game is jumping at me for some reason...

public perception on SD is very high right now... and Oakland is terrible.... 7 points???

divisional game. San Diego coming off laying a beatdown on the Jets.

Kansas City, and Denver up next for the chargers... 3 divisional games in a row

looking to lay a nice amount on oakland.... just hate betting on shit teams, but i believe this is a great spot for them..

would love to hear your thoughts on this game fellas... anything is welcome.

(also looking at NYJ and the under in Philly/NYG)

I saw lots of love for the Redskins last night. It is always tough to play shit teams. Couldn't do it myself.

Good luck if you pull the trigger.

Learned of late.........never bet on bad teams, regardless. Now, maybe, if there was a 3 in front of the 7, could be a different story!..lol. GL2U.

Wasn't it last year that SD was rolling - public very high on them, minus 7+ and went to Oakland and got rocked?

Playing OAK +7 this sunday... this is the Raiders super bowl

2011

Since 89, they're 10-15 SU and 7-18 ATS when raiders are home
Not that it means anything.

All those angles sound great.

Until the ball is kicked and you realize there is an actual game to be played, in which you just bet on the worst team in the league by a decent margin.

You need double digits to play this team.

VALUE. I'm on the Raiders in my thread this week.

 

[BoutMyMoney]

thanks fellas... although i told myself i wouldnt.... i think im gonna try ONE MORE TIME on these Raiders..... wish me luck lol

I believe divisional home dogs of +7 or more hit at over 58%. Plus raiders are off a bye and a coaching change. I like raiders.

Think of Jacksonville

all the angles you mention are spot on, but for me to bet on a bad team there has to be a scenario that i can play out in my head where they can actually do it. its hard to play out a scenario where the raiders can do this only because they don't have any playmakers. most of the td's they have scored this yr were after the game was way out of hand. i think there is a better place for me to put my money this weekend.

Playing +7 because it a div. rival game + i'm going to the game

I actually made a few bucks taking Oakland +13 against New England a few weeks ago. (But until this past week New England has looked like crap as well). The Jets are the one's that are killing me!! I do think you make some valid points though. If this was a Sunday or Monday night game, I'd be all over it. I think bad teams like Oakland treat "those" games like Super Bowls, but I'll decide closer to game time whether I'm gonna play this game..Good Luck
