Jeff Alexander says take the points with Oakland: Bottom Line: I’ll take the Raiders at home catching a generous amount of points off a confidence boosting win against the struggling Jets. Oakland won by 3 points in New York last season and coming off a big win against the Eagles, it certainly won’t be lacking any confidence today. I have uncovered two systems that highlight how much odds makers like to undervalue bad passing teams like Oakland. Plays against favorites of 3.5 to 10 points (NY JETS) – poor passing team (5.3-5.9 PYA) against a horrible passing team (<=5.3 PYA), after gaining 5.5 or less passing yards/attempt last game, are 24-5 ATS since 1983. Also, the Jets are 1-11 ATS vs. awful passing teams averaging 150 or less passing yards/game since 1992. Bet the Raiders for 1 unit.

Vernon Croy is also playing the Raiders: This pick falls into one of my top NFL systems and the Raiders are coming off a huge win against one of the best teams in the NFL so they will be very confident coming into this game. The Jets were just beat at home as 9 point favorites by a bad Bills team and Oakland is one of the most hostile places in the NFL to play in so I look for Mark Sanchez to struggle. The Raiders defense has looked great at times this season and they just held a potent Eagles offense to just 9 points so this will be anything but a walk in the park for the Jets offense that is led by a young Mark Sanchez. The Jets offense is only averaging 156 pypg this season while completing just 51.8% of their passes and they are only averaging 16.7 ppg over their last 3 games played. The Jets are just 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games as a favorite and they are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games after a loss. The Jets are also just 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games as a road favorite and they are just 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games against a team with a losing record. The home team is 4-0-1 ATS in the last 5 games between these two teams and the Raiders win last week was definitely not a fluke as they ending up winning SU despite turning the ball over 2 more times than the Eagles. The Raiders were the better team last week and they show up again this week so grab the points with the Oakland Raiders as my NFL Free Pick for Sunday.

Tom Freese is going with the UNDER 35: Oakland is 10-2 UNDER their last 12 October games and they are 7-2 UNDER their last 9 home games. The Raiders are 7-2-1 UNDER their last 10 games after allowing less than 15 points in their last game and they are 4-1-1 UNDER their last 6 meetings with the Jets. New York is 23-9 UNDER their last 32 games as favorites of 3.5 to 10 points. New York is 7-3 UNDER their last 10 vs. a team with a losing home record. The Jets are 6-2 UNDER their last 8 games and they 21-9 UNDER after rushing for more than 150 yards in their last game. PLAY ON ‘UNDER’
