The Raiders had been treading water most of the season, and while I thought they had a small chance against Denver, but I didn’t think it would go like that. A 59-14 win where nearly everyone touched the ball. Oakland has been a strong team on defending against the pass as Kyle Orton found out the hard way. Despite the showing, we need to remember that’s not the team that Oakland is. Expect a strong defense and nowhere near that level of offense. The Seahawks stumbled a bit after the season opener, but look back on track with two straight wins, including last week’s 22-10 win over Arizona. The Seahawks are pretty mediocre everywhere, save one thing — opponents only rush for 77.5 yards a game (2nd). That’s the one spot Oakland usually excels at and it will be negated this week. They are riding a high, but it won’t last long against the 1st place ‘Hawks.
