Why Oakland Raiders are a good bet at +10?

Are the Raiders a safe bet for NFL Week 10?

Oakland has been absolutely horrendous this season, but they often step it up in games versus rivals like the L.A. Chargers. The Raiders fight hard when they face the Chargers. If the spread was closer to Oakland +7, they might be a tough team to back.

But, the Raiders get double-digit points in this game on Sunday. All Oakland must do is play with heart and they’ll keep it close.

Chargers vs Raiders Final NFL Betting Analysis

The Raiders don’t have any heart left. Coach Jon Gruden lost this team way before Week 9 when San Francisco beat them 34-3. Oakland has gone so far as to cut defensive captain Bruce Irvin. That’s on top of the massive changes the Raiders have already undergone this season.

Oakland’s just a bad football team that’s wandering aimlessly around the league looking for an identity. They have no shot of keeping this one close against one of the hottest, most well-coached squads in the NFL.

Sure, it’s a rivalry, but the Raiders are toast before they even get out of the locker room.
