Raiders vs. Jets Picks: Bet the Over & Geno Smith Props

All right, the Raiders are playing at the Jets in the Geno Smith revenge game. And we have a team from Vegas that has lost four games in a row. And now if they don't win this game, they play San Francisco on the road next week. Then they play Seattle at home and the schedule just gets more and more difficult. The trade deadline is on the 10th of November and there is all sorts of talk about Kirk Cousins potentially being traded. And when does Mendoza play? The number is small. It's one and a half. Are you trusting the Jets here to win a game against the Raiders? The last time the Raiders went east, they got killed by the Patriots. I'm not trusting the Jets to win this game, but I think that this is a sneaky shootout. Like I liked the over 45 and a half. I think both of these defenses have been exposed at various points. Like the Raiders, like once the, once the weight class got bumped up, it was like, okay, nevermind. The Raiders defense is not this unit. We thought they maybe could be they're definitively not. And, and to the Geno Smith of it all, dude, I, Again, chasing the, the plus money over passing touchdowns already bet the over one and a half passing touchdowns in this game, because with a full complement of weapons for Geno Smith over the last two weeks, the Jets are seventh in red zone passing rate. I also love the Garrett Wilson over his receiving yardage prop, because I think this is the squeaky wheel game where it's like, the team is like, we're not trading you. He's like, I don't want to be traded. He's had some quiet games. Omar Cooper Jr. has been popping off with big games. But some of that you can kind of see. Like Christian Gonzalez was shadowing him for like 94% of his routes against the Patriots. So duh, it was a down game. I think we get the Garrett Wilson squeaky wheel game. I think this game goes over. I think we get a lot of points in this game. I want to read you a quote that's not getting publicized as much as it would have if these teams were any good because both the Raiders and the Jets suck. But Ashton Gentry yesterday. Was asked about facing the Jets and he said, quote, I think we could definitely get the run game going, get back on track and just really get after these guys. A couple of guys out there that don't really want to tackle. I'm not going to say names, but I'm not going to say names. I mean, what is Ashton Gentry doing telling the Jets defense that I don't think you guys want to tackle me? Do you really want to give an Aaron Glenn defense, any bulletin board material? Like, especially when your run game sucks, the Raiders can't run the ball and you're not fully healthy and your offensive line blows. Like they have the lowest yards before contact per attempt in the entire freaking NFL. And it's by a sizable margin. Per alt, like we're talking about almost a half yard in the analytic streets like that's massive like the cavern or the excuse me the Grand Canyon between them and the Cincinnati Bengals as being the second worst run blocking line in the NFL right now is sizable. Why are you giving a defense bulletin board material to go light you up this week? That's ignorant. It's crazy. I was stunned. I was texting with my Raider people last night going, what exactly is he doing? And they said, getting put in the doghouse by Kubiak because Kubiak is going to be like, what are you doing? Why are you calling out anyone? We've lost four games in a row. Like we blow right now. What the hell are you talking about? Don't talk about some other team like that. So if you're looking for unders, Ashton Gentry unders on his rushing is probably a good play because I don't think the Jets are going to let him run at all. That's going to be the number one focal point going, oh, we don't like the tackle. Okay, here you go, kid. So watch that storyline. Isn't it the most AG thing in the world to be like, fine, you want to question our run defense? We're going to load the box up and not saying like they don't care if they throw all over them and stuff like that. But it's like, we are definitely going to make a statement. We're going to fly to the football. We're not letting you get anything. And it's like, it's not like Jenty's been good all season running the ball or healthy. Right. I just, I don't understand that. It's like, dude, like. Do you have to do it? Did you have to? Did you really have to do it? Especially when you're on the road and you give 45 points to the Patriots the last time I played in the Eastern time zone. so Raiders, not the type of story you want to see come out of that locker room.
