Does this line seem a little fishy to you guys also?  Seems like Oakland were very unimpressive in the preseason. I don't believe they added any big additions to the team this season either.   I would think the line would be -5 or 6 for the broncos at home on MNF.

The only thing I can think of is vegas is currently getting twice the amount of action on the Pats game and feel the -125 juice on DEN may dissuade some bettors.   If this line moves to 4 I don't see how we don't pound the broncos.  Any thoughts anyone?

Maybe it's because the Broncos are not that good. Ever thought that might be the reason?

Not too mention the Raiders absolutely CRUSHED the broncos last year....but just as last year means nothing, so does preseason....

Take the OVER, Raiders will score easy on broncos soft D and the Raiders have no D....

Johnny good point.  However to me the embarrassment from last year is another reason to like Denver.  No better way to start the season then revenge on MNF.  Also wouldn't you agree Orton is better then Campbell?

As far as the over, 78% on the over now, and line went from 41 to only 41.5.

Huge Raider fan here...and if ANY team is worse to bet on/against for week one than the others...its Oakland.  No way to tell what we are going to do in this game...local bay area radio expects this to be a win, and they hate us lol take that for what its worth...

I'll be rolling with the Pats and enjoying the Raider game for the game.  Good luck to all of you (not really, just to you guys who take Oakland :D you'll likely be afterward if you do...especially if I think it and don't bet it).

Charger fan here. Swept by raiders last year. 6-0 AFC West. 59-14 at invesco last year. My money is on them just to PROVE me it was not a fluke.

Also on the AFC West champion yesterday. Glad I lost my money

Orton is better QB unless Campbell decides to show up. When Campbell plays well he's actually a good QB....

Raiders running game will be chewing up yards tonight....
