Point Spread: Oakland -13.5
Total: 43.5

Two old foes will meet when the AFC East and AFC West clash as the New York Jets travel across the country to face off with the Oakland Raiders. The two teams last met in 2015 where the Raiders defeated Gang Green by score of a 34-20. Kick-off is scheduled for 4:05 PM ET at Oakland Coliseum in Oakland, California, otherwise known as The Black Hole. The game will be televised on CBS for regional audiences.

The two teams come in on differing notes. In Week One, Oakland cruised past Tennessee in a 26-16 victory in Nashville. On the contrary, the Jets fell on the road in Buffalo when they were defeated by the Bills by a score of 21-12 at Ralph Wilson Stadium. The subject of conversation was the lack of offensive production by Gang Green. The Jets defense kept them in the game against Buffalo far longer than many anticipated but they simply could not hang the points on the board to capitalize or come away with a win.

New York Jets at Oakland Raiders ATS Prediction

The selling points of these two teams are far contrasting. The Raiders qualified for the playoffs in 2016 and are positioned to once again return to the post-season with perhaps a better team than they had last season. For New York, the Jets are projected by some to go winless this season. Situationally, this contest sets up for takers to pay a premium if they wish to have a piece of the Oakland pie. Contrarily, to entice action on Gang Green the Jets will likely be accompanied by a friendly price tag. From a value perspective, we will step in accordingly and take an enhanced allotment of points. The Jets could have fostered a cover at Buffalo last week had their own miscues not given the Bills to opportunity to grab easy points. Oakland is certainly a step up in quality in terms of competition but nevertheless the fact that this contest is also on the West Coast further drives the price. At a neutral site, this meeting would have opened as a touchdown-plus choice in some markets. Given the fact both teams are lined on opposite ends of the spectrum some would actually expect the price to be higher. This market is designed to entice action on the favorite which puts us in a great position to come in on a fade with a potential live dog.
