Why The Raiders Could Cover The Spread

The Raiders are playing out the stretch, hoping the season can end sooner rather than later. Ultimately, they are still technically in the playoff race, but they need everything to go right just to make the big dance.

O'Connell has been efficient, but not spectacular, since taking over for Jimmy Garoppolo. Overall, he has passed for 1,613 yards with eight touchdowns and seven interceptions through eight games. O'Connell will need help from his running game. So far, Jacobs has rushed 233 times for 805 yards and six touchdowns. Adams has continued to be elite, catching 84 passes for 968 yards and five touchdowns. Likewise, Jakobi Meyers has 59 catches for 648 yards and seven scores.

The defense does not have much going for them. Yet, there are four playmakers who can make a difference. Maxx Crosby is a beast, with 48 solo tackles and 13.5 sacks. Meanwhile, Malcolm Koone has been solid, with 21 solo tackles and four sacks. Robert Spillane might not play this week. Ultimately, the Raiders need him as he has 63 solo tackles, 3.5 sacks, and three interceptions. Tre'von Moehrig has 58 solo tackles, two sacks, and two interceptions.

The Raiders will cover the spread if they can play ball control and maintain possession. Then, they need to avoid getting burned by Mahomes.

Why The Chiefs Could Cover The Spread

The Chiefs finally snapped their losing streak last week. Regardless, there is still work to do as they attempt to secure good positioning in the playoffs and win another division title.

Mahomes continues to play well, tossing 3,703 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 13 interceptions while rushing 61 times for 334 yards. Now, he will get Isiah Pacheco back after the running back has missed two games with an injury. Pacheco has rushed 176 times for 779 yards and six touchdowns. Meanwhile, Kelce continues to thrive, with 85 catches for 924 yards and five touchdowns. Rice has emerged as a top target, catching 68 passes for 754 yards and seven touchdowns.

The defense has done well enough to steal some games this season. First, Chris Jones continues to play well, with 17 solo tackles and 7.5 sacks. Mike Danna has been good, with 29 solo tackles and 6.5 sacks. Likewise, George Karlaftis has generated 24 solo tackles and nine sacks. L'Jarious Snead has been a solid piece of the secondary, garnering 55 solo tackles and two interceptions.

The Chiefs will cover the spread if they can produce on offense and move the chains. Then, they need to force the Raiders to pass.

Final Raiders-Chiefs Prediction & Pick

The Raiders usually play the Chiefs tough. However, the Chiefs will have just a little more motivation to keep their foot on the gas for the entirety of this game. Chiefs cover the spread and win big.
