Game Details:
| Recommended Bets | FanDuel | BetMGM |
|---|---|---|
| Geno Smith Interception | -170 | -175 |
| Brock Bowers Anytime Touchdown | +180 | +160 |
| Total Score Under 42.5 | -110 | -113 |
Raiders’ quarterback Geno Smith has struggled massively this season when it comes to protecting the ball, especially in the air. In the 8 games Smith has played this season, the Raiders’ quarterback has already thrown 11 interceptions. Moreover, he has been picked off at least once in 6 of the 8 games he has played.
Brock Bowers missed multiple games due to injury, but made his comeback last week against the Jaguars. He looked in impeccable form, catching 12 of his 13 targets for 127 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns. With the Raiders trading Jakobi Meyers to Jacksonville, look for Bowers to become a greater target in the endzone.
The Denver Broncos are averaging 25 points per game, while the Las Vegas Raiders are scoring just about 16.5 per game. Defensively, while the Raiders are allowing around 26 points per game, the Broncos are a top 5 defense, allowing just about 18 points on average. The Raiders could struggle to put up many points against the Broncos’ stellar defense, so taking the under 42.5 points looks like a good bet.
The Broncos are coming into this game on a 6-game win streak and the tied best record in the league. They have one of the best defenses, and quarterback Bo Nix has got the offense going as well.
The Raiders have struggled to get things going this season. With just 2 wins from 8 games, things have not gone as per plan. Brock Bowers coming back from injury is a boost, but even then L.A. lacks the offensive firepower and the defensive prowess to take on the in-form Broncos.
Prediction: Denver Broncos to win.
