If there’s any single team I love at home, it’s the San Diego Chargers. They’re 13-6 ATS in their last 19 home stands and are carrying a 5-1 ATS and five game undefeated streak in to this match while hosting Oakland. Phillip Rivers is going to explode in this game, even though the rushing game has been an unmitigated disaster.
Raiders Over Jets? Believe It
The Jets got off to a hot start but are now victims of three straight losses. With the news that stalwart defensive tackle Kris Jenkins has a torn ACL and will miss the rest of the season, the Jets have just lost the reason for their rushing defense. But that loss isn’t the biggest deal. The truth is that Dirty Sanchez is beginning to stink.
Lifeless Raiders Host Philadelphia Eagles
If you were slightly worried about Donavan McNabb’s return from a cracked rib, then he put your fears to rest by cracking out a can of whoop-ass on Tampa Bay. McNabb was near perfect last weekend with 16-of-21 for 264 yards and three touchdowns. The second best scoring offense remains intact, and gets to face the 26th ranked defense in the league when they pay a visit to Oakland this weekend.
The Philadelphia Eagles look to keep decimating mediocre teams as they visit the 14 point home underdog Oakland Raiders at 4:05 PM ET at Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum.

Oakland Raiders vs. New York Giants
Sunday, October 11 – 1:00 PM ET
The New York Giants (4-0 SU, 3-1 ATS, 2-2 O/U) may or may not starting quarterback Eli Manning under center when they take the field for their Week 5 showdown against the dysfunctional Oakland Raiders (1-3 SU, 2-2 ATS, 1-3 O/U).
The Raiders continue to be the joke of the NFL, while the Giants continue to set the standard in the NFL. Talk about world’s colliding. In what was a definite romp, the Giants’ star quarterback, Eli Manning, has been sidelined by swelling in his foot and has watched David Carr take the majority of the first team snaps. The line hasn’t moved for this game, so the question is whether the Giants can cover without Manning.
If not for the outstanding play of Matt Schaub (300.6 passing yards per game), the Texans would be getting demolished. They’ve allowed 28.7 points and 205.0 rushing yards against per game. Good thing for them they get to play at home against Oakland, the second worst offense in the league. JaMarcus Russell a huge bust this season, leading an offense that generates just 223.0 yards per game and has managed an average of 12.0 points per game.

In their college days, Michael Bush and Run DMC were two of the best backs in the nation. Now they share a backfield, making Justin Fargas virtually expendable. Bush and DMC combined for 123.0 yards and a score against one of the better 3-4 defenses in the league.
