Last week: 30 (+0)

Record: 3-7

The Raiders have lost two straight in embarrassing fashion, losing 55-20 to the Ravens and 38-17 to the Saints last week at home and they’ve now allowed 135 points in their last 3 games. The good news is that teams generally do well after two straight losses by 21 or more (36-16 ATS since 2002), as they’re embarrassed and overlooked. If the Raiders can’t have a rebound game this week against an overrated Bengals team, it might be time to wonder if they’ve simply quit. Their new front office inherited a mess and it will take at least another year or two to get them back to even being respectable. Before his death, Al Davis really mortgaged their future for two 8-8 seasons (makes sense since he was dying).
