Normally I would look at a 14.5 spread and immediately take the underdog, but I don’t think I can do that in this one. The Raiders are really bad and the Seahawks are trying to prove that they are really good. You can bank on the Seahawks not losing two straight at home… especially against Oakland. I think this is the week Seattle clicks on all fronts and really puts the Raiders in their place, or shall I say keep them in last place. The Seahawks are such a better team it’s not really comparable at this point, despite Seattle’s recent struggles to score points. They shouldn’t have that problem this week.
If the Raiders want to stay in this one, they need to play football like they’ve never played football before. They will need to do everything right and do nothing wrong. But let’s be honest here… that’s not going to happen. They will get crushed and Seattle will cover this massive spread.
SEAHWAKS 28 – RAIDERS 13
FANTASY BEAST – SEAHAWKS DEFENSE
