Just by the spread alone, I feel this game has trap written all over it.  But as the spread says, this game has blow out written all over it.  The Pats are just so much better than the Raiders.  Any way I attempt to see how the Raiders might be able to win this game, I just can't see it happening.  Could they beat the spread?  Possibly.  Are they going to win this game?  Not a chance.  Not in New England and not against Tom Brady.  The Patriots were built to not lose games like this at home.  The Raiders are traveling across the country for a 1pm game against the preseason favorites by many to win the Super Bowl.  Now I do not think the Pats will win the bowl this year, but I do believe that they will beat the Raiders this week.  This will be a dissection quarter by quarter and they will most likely double this spread.  This will be a game Raiders fans will look to forget.
