Las Vegas Raiders at Detroit Lions odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Las Vegas Raiders at Detroit Lions odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Las Vegas Raiders (3-4) and the Detroit Lions (5-2) wrap up the Week 8 slate on Monday Night Football. Kickoff from Ford Field is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET (ABC/ESPN). Below, we analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Raiders vs. Lions odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

Both teams are coming off ugly road losses where they didn’t score a TD until the 4th quarter when their respective games were out of hand.

Las Vegas lost as a 2.5-point favorite at the Chicago Bears 30-12. QB Brian Hoyer, starting in place of an injured Jimmy Garoppolo, only threw for 129 yards with 2 picks. He was replaced in the 4th quarter by rookie Aidan O’Connell, who was 10 of 13 with a TD and a pick in garbage time.

The setback snapped a short 2-game Raiders win streak — home victories vs. the New England Patriots (21-17 in Week 6) and the Green Bay Packers (17-13 in Week 5).

Detroit was spanked 38-6 as a 3-point underdog at the Baltimore Ravens. The Lions were outgained 503 to 337 yards and had no answer for Ravens QB Lamar Jackson, who threw for 3 TDs and ran for one as Baltimore built a 35-0 lead by the midpoint of the 3rd quarter.

The loss snapped a 4-game win and cover streak for the Lions.

Raiders at Lions picks and predictions

Prediction

Lions 35, Raiders 10

Moneyline

The Lions (-340) are a much better team than the Raiders, but risking 3.4 times the potential return is just not smart sports gambling. PASS.

Against the spread

DETROIT -7.5 (-108) is the STRONGEST PLAY – 1½ times your usual wager.

While playing at the Ravens last week wasn’t going to be an easy task, no one expected the Lions to get blown out the way the did.

Coach Dan Campbell and his players have to be chomping at the bit to get back at it and put last week’s debacle behind them. Las Vegas might be the perfect remedy to do so.

The Raiders don’t travel well. They are 1-3 on the road this season with a 1-2-1 ATS mark. Last season, they were 2-7 on the road with a 3-6 ATS record.

The Lions are known for covering the spread at home. While they’re only 2-1 ATS at home this season (and 2-1 straight up), they’re 9-3 ATS at Ford Field over the last 2 seasons and 15-5 ATS there since the start of the 2021 season.

The Raiders rank last in rushing at 68.6 yards per game. They haven’t had a 100-yard rushing game this season and they only could muster 39 rushing yards against the Bears last week.

The Lions feature the 2nd-best defense against the run, yielding 76.3 YPG — the Philadelphia Eagles are 1st at 65.5 YPG.

This should get ugly. Expect a blowout by the LIONS -7.5 (-108).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 46.5 (-105) TO WIN A HALF UNIT.

There’s something about Monday night games and Unders this season. The Under is 8-1 in Monday night games, including 6-0 in the last 6. Only the Week 2 Pittsburgh Steelers’ 26-22 home win vs. the Cleveland Browns cashed an Over (39.5) ticket.

Detroit is 4-3 O/U. The reason for the HALF UNIT is because the Lions averaged 31.0 points in their last 3 games. They will put up 30-plus points in this one, but will the Raiders score enough to hit this Over?

Las Vegas is averaging 16.0 points per game, ranking 30th in the league. The Under is 2-5 in the Raiders’ 7 games — they cashed 4 Unders in a row before the Over (38.5) hit in the Chicago loss.

Until the MNF Under trend ends, I’m going to keep riding it.

Las Vegas Raiders at Chicago Bears odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Las Vegas Raiders at Chicago Bears odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Las Vegas Raiders (3-3) and Chicago Bears (1-5) meet Sunday at Soldier Field. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Raiders vs. Bears odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

Just what everyone wanted to see — a game featuring backup quarterbacks.

The Raiders are rolling with QB Brian Hoyer under center as Jimmy Garoppolo is out with a back injury. The Bears are going with Tyson Bagent as Justin Fields is out with a dislocated thumb.

The Raiders covered as 3-point favorites with a 21-17 victory over the New England Patriots last week. They’re now 3-2-1 against the spread (ATS) and 1-1-1 on the road. Hoyer came in and connected with 6-for-10 passing for 102 yards. RB Josh Jacobs continues to struggle with just 2.9 yards per carry.

The Bears’ season continues to unravel. They failed to cover as 3-point dogs in a 19-13 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. They’re now 1-4-1 ATS and 0-2-1 at home. With Fields and RB Khalil Herbert out, expect a large dosage of RB D’Onta Foreman, who had 15 carries for 65 yards last week.

Raiders at Bears picks and predictions

Prediction

Raiders 24, Bears 10

Moneyline

The Raiders have enough talent to get past the hamstrung Bears. WR Davante Adams was vocal about his role in the offense last week, and I look for Hoyer to dial him up as much as possible.

I like the Raiders here, but I’d rather lay the points than pay the -145 for the ML. Also, give DAVANTE ADAMS OVER 69.5 RECEIVING YARDS (-110) a look.

Against the spread

The only way the Bears make this competitive is if Hoyer shoots himself in the foot with turnovers, and the Bears can run the ball effectively. Take the RAIDERS -2.5 (-110) here as it should be an easy cover.

Over/Under

The Raiders are 1-5 O/U this season, and the Bears are 5-1. The last time these teams met, in 2021, it was a 20-9 Bears win. The backup quarterbacks have this line a little low, but it’s still well within the realm of cashing an Under.

Take the UNDER 37.5 (-110).

Patriots at Raiders picks and predictions

Prediction

Patriots 20, Raiders 17

Moneyline

It has been a complete mess for New England in recent weeks, but I’ll back the PATRIOTS (+125) on the road against the Raiders. Coach Bill Belichick is going up against one of his former assistants in coach Josh McDaniels, and he’ll want to quiet the noise with everyone criticizing him amid recent blowout defeats.

The Patriots have been better on the road this season, producing a 1-1 record as the visitors compared to a 0-3 record at home.

Against the spread

Considering that I have New England winning outright, PATRIOTS +3 (-115) is the ideal bet on the spread in this matchup. The Patriots have been ravaged by injuries on defense, but Belichick can still scheme up a defense that can force QB Jimmy Garoppolo into making mistakes.

The Raiders are allowing an EPA per play of 0.058 (27th in the NFL) on the defensive side of the ball, so QB Mac Jones and the Patriots could see better results on offense this week. Garoppolo also leads the NFL with 7 interceptions thrown.

Over/Under

UNDER 41.5 (-110) is how I’d wager on the total with both offenses in this game being inconsistent units. The Patriots are averaging a league-worst 11 points per game, while the Raiders are logging only 15.8 points per game (29th in the NFL).

Both of these teams are also 1-4 to the Over in the first 5 weeks of the season.

Green Bay Packers at Las Vegas Raiders odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Green Bay Packers at Las Vegas Raiders Week 5 odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Green Bay Packers (2-2) and the Las Vegas Raiders (1-3) meet for a Week 5 matchup on Monday Night Football at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:15 p.m. ET (ABC/ESPN). Below, we analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Packers vs. Raiders odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

The Packers have alternated wins and losses in 4 games overall this season. Green Bay opened with a perfect 3-0 ATS record, but it failed to cover in Week 4 in a Thursday night loss at home against the Detroit Lions, falling 34-20 as a 2.5-point underdog. The Over has hit in 3 of 4 games for the Pack this season.

The Raiders were dumped 24-17 on the road against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers, pushing as 7-point underdogs at most shops as the Under (49) connected. After winning on the road in Denver in Week 1, the Silver and Black have dropped 3 in a row, while going 0-2-1 ATS. The Under is 3-1 overall for the Raiders this season.

Packers at Raiders picks and predictions

Prediction

Packers 23, Raiders 19

Moneyline

GREEN BAY (+114) is a solid play on the moneyline as short ‘dogs.

QB Jordan Love and the passing attack should find a little extra breathing room with Hobbs sidelined, and perhaps as many as 3 total members of the secondary in street clothes.

QB Jimmy Garoppolo returns from concussion to start, but it’s possible his best weapon, WR Davante Adams, can’t suit up against his former team due to a shoulder ailment. He didn’t practice until a limited session Saturday. There is just too much risk backing Las Vegas (-134).

Against the spread

Playing Green Bay +1.5 (-104) makes very little sense vs. the moneyline, unless you are dead-set on this game being a 1-point victory for the Raiders -1.5 (-118).

AVOID, as taking the underdog with such small point totals makes zero sense.

Over/Under

UNDER 45.5 (-115) is the lean, but go small.

We’ve seen the Under cash in 3 of 4 games overall for the Raiders, while the Over is 3-1 in 4 games for the Packers. The Under is 3-1 in the past 4 games against AFC opponents for Green Bay, however, while the Under is 4-2 in the past 6 for Vegas against NFC foes.

More importantly, the Raiders offense has managed 18 or fewer points in all 4 games to date, while the Packers are averaging just 19.0 PPG in the past 2 outings. Points should be at a premium, with the Carlson Brothers, PKs Anders Carlson (Packers) and Daniel Carlson (Raiders), seeing plenty of field-goal opportunities.

Prediction

Raiders 28, Chargers 27

Moneyline

The Chargers will be missing their starting running back and starting center, and could be missing 2 starting safeties and their best pass rusher.

The Raiders may be without Garoppolo.

Offensively, the Chargers have been rolling. They have only turned the ball over once in 3 games and have averaged 28.7 points and 416.7 yards per game.

The problem is defensively. They have allowed 450.7 yards and 29.0 points per game.

The Raiders have not scored more than 18 points this season, but that will change this week, even if they have to go with QB Brian Hoyer.

This will be an upset.

BET RAIDERS (+185).

Against the spread

Both teams are 1-2 ATS to start the season. The Chargers have not won a game or covered the spread as the favorite yet this season.

The Chargers’ only win this season was by just 4 points.

BET RAIDERS +4.5 (-110).

Over/Under

All 3 games for the Chargers this season have had at least 51 total points.

The Raiders have not had a game surpass 48 total points.

But the story for the Chargers has been defensive problems, which should continue with key starters hurt.

BET OVER 48.5 (-110).

Steelers at Raiders picks and predictions

Prediction

Steelers 20, Raiders 14

Moneyline

This game figures to be a grind-it-out affair on the ground. The Steelers allow 193 rushing yards per game, which is the worst in the league. The Raiders are 27th at 138.5 rushing yards allowed per game.

Pittsburgh will try to dominate on the ground and eat up clock. RB Najee Harris has yet to really get going with 16 rushes for 74 yards on the season. Look for him to test that yardage threshold in this game. I’ll take the STEELERS +125 at plus-money.

Against the spread

The Steelers are at a value catching nearly a field goal at even-money. The Raiders will try to air it out a bit, but in a game that figures to be about time of possession, the Steelers match up well.

I like the STEELERS +2.5 (+100) whether you take the ML or not.

Over/Under

As mentioned, this game figures to be a grind between the tackles. Neither offense has had much success thus far as the Steelers have combined for 34 points, and the Raiders have scored just 27 in 2 games. The Raiders are 4-6 O/U in their last 10, and Pittsburgh is 5-5.

This game screams UNDER 43 (-110).

Las Vegas Raiders at Buffalo Bills odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Las Vegas Raiders at Buffalo Bills Team odds and lines, with expert NFL picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Las Vegas Raiders (1-0) visit the Buffalo Bills (0-1) Sunday in Week 2 NFL action. Kickoff at Highmark Stadium is at 1 p.m. ET (CBS). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Raiders vs. Bills odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.

Las Vegas surprised almost everyone with a 17-16 road victory over the Denver Broncos in Week 1. New QB Jimmy Garoppolo managed the game well throwing for 200 yards and 2 touchdowns and found a great connection with fellow new Raider WR Jakobi Meyers who caught 9 of 10 targets for 81 yards and 2 touchdowns. However, Meyers suffered a concussion late in the game and is out for Week 2.

The Raiders are likely hoping to get more from RB Josh Jacobs who led the league last season in rushing yards but was held to 48 yards on 19 carries in Week 1.

All eyes will be on the Bills to see if they can avoid a 0-2 start for the first time since 2018 after they were stunned 22-16 in overtime by the New York Jets in Week 1. QB Josh Allen threw 3 interceptions, was sacked 5 times and lost a fumble in the loss, although he did find top WR Stefon Diggs 10 times for 102 yards and a touchdown. Diggs was the only Buffalo receiver to have more than 32 yards in the game.

The last time these teams met was in Oct. 2020 in Las Vegas when Buffalo recorded a 30-23 victory as a 3-point favorite. The Raiders are 4-2 against the spread (ATS) in their last 6 against the Bills but have lost 2 in a row against the number in the series.

Raiders at Bills picks and predictions

Prediction

Bills 27, Raiders 23

Moneyline

PASS.

No win is guaranteed when it comes to the Bills after we saw them blow last week’s game against the Jets and there is no way I’m going to bet this Buffalo team -310 against a surprising Raiders squad even playing in the friendly confines of Highmark Stadium. Even if the Bills dominated in Week 1, I’d never put down 3 units to win 1, it’s just a bad bet.

Against the spread

BET RAIDERS +8.5 (-110).

I really like the Raiders getting points in this one. Las Vegas really impressed me on the road in Denver in Week 1 as QB Jimmy Garoppolo did exactly what he needed to do to get the job done and their defense kept Sean Payton’s new-look Broncos’ offense in check.

QB Josh Allen needs to play better and I’m not convinced he’ll be able to do that in just one week’s time. He has not been right since former offensive coordinator Brian Daboll left for the Giants’ head coaching job. While the offense is basically the same, the coaching is different under Ken Dorsey.

Over/Under

BET OVER 47 (-110).

Despite both of these teams going Under their game total in each of their last 2 games, I feel like this game could be a sneaky shootout.

The Raiders and Bills are 5-0-1 to the Over in their last 6 meetings dating back to Sept. 2008.
