Taking the RAIDERS here. What? The Raiders? Higgs, you just got done telling us to fade west coasters coming east in your Tampa write up!.. Let's take a closer look here. First off, we did cash with the Ravens as a Top 10* last week. Total picture here is simple. Ravens nearly blew that game last week. The Ravens defense is a shell of its former dominate self. We have seen teams run the ball right down their throats on the road and here at home. Raiders came east and played the Falcons pretty tough, and I think Atlanta is better than this Baltimore bunch. Tough division sandwich here with the hated Steelers on deck. Oakland 6-2-1 ATS last 9 vs teams with winning records, 9-4 ATS last 13 on the road. Ravens 1-4 ATS last 5 vs AFC teams, 1-5 ATS last 6 vs teams with losing records and 1-5 ATS last 6 at home. 4* OAKLAND RAIDERS
