This is a 10* PRIME-TIME PUNI$HER on the Raiders MONEYLINE.
The Packers are 2-2, and the Raiders are 1-3. Las Vegas was supposed to take a step forward this season, meaning that this Week 5 game is huge. A 1-4 start will be a difficult hole to climb out of though obviously.
But at 2-3 the Raiders, who just lost to division rival LA 24-17 as 7-point dogs last weekend, would in fact be right behind the Chargers going into Week 6 for the second spot in the division (behind the Chiefs), who are on their bye this weekend.
It's a big game for sure for the home side, and because of that I'm going to avoid this small spread altogether, and instead be making a play on Las Vegas on the moneyline option to just win this game outright.
The Packers won in Week 1 on the road in Chicago 38-20, but after that emotional divisional victory, they predictably stumbled the following week at Atlanta 25-24. In their most recent 34-20 beatdown home loss to Detroit, Jordan Love once again looked lost.
The Packers were outgained 401-230 in the setback. Love ranks 34th in the NFL in completion percentage.
Jimmy Garappolo should be back under center for the Raiders, which despite his early numbers, would obviously be a good thing. Josh Jacobs has yet to break loose, but he's always a dangerous and potential threat.
Aaron Jones is questionable as well for Green Bay, which throws into question the run game for the visiting side, which makes its one-dimensional offense even more so.
Both teams have a lot of things to work through. With a spread like this, clearly the oddsmakers believe (or at least are trying to lead us to believe), that these teams are very evenly matched coming into this one.
And they are, but the overall "SITUATION" definitely favors the home side here, and that tips the scales in favor of the RAIDERS for sure on Monday night.
In a contest that I see being decided in the trenches and by field position, I look for the RAIDERS to find a way to get the job done this week.
Good luck, NP
