Oakland at San Francisco Game Overview
Things have not gone as planned in the second coming of Jon Gruden as the Raiders’ head coach. Sunday’s 42-28 loss at home against Indianapolis as 3.5-point underdogs was their third in a row both straight-up and against the spread. Oakland slid to 2-5 ATS overall with the total going OVER the 51-point closing line in that latest loss. It had stayed UNDER in four of its previous six games. The Raiders are 1-2 ATS in their first three road games this year.
The good news in Sunday’s loss was the offense’s ability to put some points on the board after combing for 13 points in the Raiders’ previous two losses to the Los Angeles Chargers and Seattle Seahawks. Another bright spot was the play of Derek Carr at quarterback with 244 yards passing and three touchdown throws. Oakland’s defense has given up an average of 31.7 points in the three-game slide, which has remained consistent with its 31st ranking in the NFL when it comes to average points allowed (31.1).
San Francisco had its chances to snap an extended five-game SU slide against Arizona, but that losing streak was extended to six games with Sunday’s 18-15 loss as a 2.5-point road favorite. The total stayed UNDER 40 points in that NFC West tilt after going OVER in five of the 49ers’ previous six outings. They are 2-6 ATS overall with a 0-3 record ATS on their home field this season.
CJ Beathard continues to get the start for San Francisco at quarterback, and the offense continues to struggle in both the passing game and moving the ball on the ground. He ended the day against Arizona with 190 passing yards and one touchdown throw while completing just 14 of his 28 passing attempts. The 49ers added another 107 rushing yards on 31 attempts with Matt Breida gaining 42 yards on 16 carries. It is tough to find a bright spot for this team with the defense allowing an average of 29.5 points per game.
