It was unfathomable to think that the Raiders and the Jaguars would meet in Week 14 with a playoff spot on the line. But it’s true! The Raiders are just two games back in the AFC West and the Jacksonville Jaguars sit alone in top spot in the AFC South.

The Raiders did the unthinkable last week. Not only did they beat the Chargers at home in December but they completed the season sweep of the Chargers in 2010. In the two games prior to their Week 13 win, the Raiders looked terrible in consecutive losses to the Steelers and the Dolphins.

It is no secret as to why the Raiders struggled in their previous two – the running game was completely ineffective. Against the Chargers last week, the third ranked Raiders running game generated 251 yards.  They will have to run the ball to be successful and against the Jags 17th ranked running game, the prospects are decent.

Jason Campbell is back at quarterback and his game management abilities have made a difference. So has his mobility. Campbell scored his fourth rushing touchdown of the season on Sunday and is a threat every time he steps onto the field.

Oakland`s defense will be a challenge for the Jags. They may not be able to stop the run but they have been good at generating pressure on opposing quarterbacks.

What more can be said about Jacksonville. Winners of four of their last five, David Gerrard is taking care of the ball and Maurice Jones-Drew is ripping it up. The defense is banding together and Jack Del Rio just may keep his job. Shocking to say the least!

The 29th ranked passing game hasn`t really been needed during the Jags recent streak. Maurice Jones-Drew has ran for 100+ yards in five straight games and the rushers combined have gone for over 145 yards in their last five games, culminating in a 258 yards performance last week.

Defensively, the Jags haven`t exactly been setting the world on fire but it is worth noting that the 17th ranked rush defense has held their opposition to under 90 yards in four of the last five games.

Betting Prediction:

Both teams are coming off good wins last week and both had incredible rushing totals in those wins. The teams are almost mirrors of each other with the team that can pass better likely winning the game. Either way this game will be close and therefore the 4 ½ point spread makes this pick a bit easier. I don`t think that either team will win by more than three points!

Betting Pick: Oakland Raiders +4 ½
