Jets vs Raiders – Week 8 NFL Betting Preview

Jets vs Raiders   Week 8 NFL Betting Preview

Jets Laying Points Against Resurgent Raiders

The New York Jets went into last week’s game against the New England Patriots with a reputation as a stifling defense. They probably should come out of it with that same reputation, because facing off against Tom Brady is an anomaly. After suffering a 30-23 defeat in a battle for AFC East supremacy, the Jets might have something nasty in-store for David Carr, who leads his Oakland Raiders into battle at 4:05 PM ET on Sunday at the Oakland-Alameda Coliseum in a CBS-televised game. After the opening kickoff, Vietbet patrons can keep the action going as they place wagers on the game in progress with Live Betting Extra.

Oakland is coming off its most complete performance of the season, beating the San Diego Chargers 37-29 in a game that was not nearly as close as the score indicated. It was an unusual matchup between two teams who are openly looking to vacate their current location and move to Los Angeles. Derek Carr, the second-year quarterback, had 289 passing yards with three touchdowns, and his rookie target, Amari Cooper, continues to impress greatly, as he had 133 yards on the afternoon.

The Jets did give the Patriots hell for a while, but New England is a kind of team that just keeps coming, and you can’t keep Brady down for long. So they surrendered their lead in the fourth quarter, and perhaps learned a little more about what it is going to take to get to the top of the division.

Despite last week’s defeat, the Jets can still find themselves on top of the heap as far as some of the defensive drive stats are concerned. They are still yielding the fewest yards per drive in the league (24.81). And they have surrendered fewer points per red zone appearance than any other NFL team. New York is tough against the run, allowing just 3.4 yards per carry, which will make it difficult for Oakland to establish a ground attack with Latavius Murray, who had 85 yards last week against San Diego.

Vietbet patrons who like to look at these games in terms of individual matchups will be intrigued, because the Jets have one of the top shutdown cornerbacks in football in Darrelle Revis, while Oakland, in Cooper, appears to have someone ready to emerge as one of the game’s most explosive receivers.

Let’s see if the Jets can sustain a running game in this one behind Chris Ivory. He was not too effective against New England last week, with just 41 yards on 17 carries, but for the season he’s been right on the mark, averaging five yards a pop. These are the things of the Jets need to have happen, because they really don’t want to get into a position where they have to rely solely on the arm of Ryan Fitzpatrick (61% completions, 11 touchdowns, seven interceptions).
