With Same-Game Parlays, I normally go for crazy odds and huge longshots but it's wildcard weekend and it's time to get down to business. Correlated 2-Leg Same Game Parlays have been one of my most profitable markets this season, and I think we have a great play here.

Let's start with Zay Jones. Whether it is through head coaching or even the wide receiver core, this whole Raiders team embraced the “next man up” mentality, and Jones is a great example of that. When Henry Ruggs left the team due to off the field issues, I was worried this Raiders team would struggle to move the ball, but Jones has been an integral part of keeping games close. Jones has 5 straight games with 5+ receptions (we just need 4) and has seen 7+ targets in each of those games. It's clear his role on this team is here to stay, and I'm expecting a good game from the 26-year-old wideout. 

Now let's talk Raiders, Am I impressed with Joe Burrow? Yes. Are these Bengals a good ball club? Also Yes, but this Raiders team matches up very well. I've been outspoken about my support for the Raiders money-line, so I'm obviously gonna love them at this alternate number of 13.5. 

Joe Burrow has been exceptional against this Blitz so far this season, but it just so happens that the Raiders blitz significantly less than every other team in the NFL. What's the reason behind that? Maxx Crosby. Crosby leads the league in QB pressures and should be fired up to continue his amazing season. While Burrow can demolish teams in single coverage, the Raiders generate so much pressure without the Blitz that their cornerbacks should have plenty of pressure when needed.
