Although I have seen opinions to the contrary the line opened at 5-4.5 and is now 3.5 in most places. However since the Raiders have a huge fan base I don't see it coming down to three flat because vegas will get it's fair share of Raider money. The focus by everyone seems to be on the TB #1 D vs. the Oakland #1 O, but I think that is a mistake, we know that both of those units are good but what about the other side of the ball?
Brad Johnson has looked decent but without the expiernce of the big game he will get shaken in the past he has been a post season interecption machine and in this game getting turnovers is clutch.......
Raiders defense has looked ugly in recent weeks but they are full of talented veterans being lead by Romo and they may have looked bad against the pass in the playoffs but they always played a team that has had a running attack and it is Tampa's o that has been lopsided towards the pass and once the raiders get the early lead they will be forced to do it again thus more flexability to blitz and to get some turnovers, and TO's = pts.
this game will not be a low scoring close game as everyone predicts..this one gets ugly....
Oakland 37 Tampa 16
Taking the following:
Oak -3.5 in the game and -1.5 in the f/h
Over 44 and 21.4 in the first half
Props
Pass attempts by brad johnson over 34.5 -115
Charlie Garner to score a TD in the game YES +130
Player to score first TD: Jerry Rice +800
Oakland wins first half and the game +120
Oakland Margin of victory 18-21 pts +1500
Over 3.5 FG's +125 (tampa will kick 3 on thier own)
Alstott longest run from scrimmage under 12.5 yards -130
Total solo and assisted tackles by Bill Romanowski Over 5.5 +100
Will either team have a 300 yard passer Yes +100
That should do it if anyone has any solid eveidence that Tampa can even make this a game i would love to read it but I have not seen anything yet....:moon:
