Las Vegas Raiders vs. Denver Broncos Odds, Pick, Prediction: Will Russell Wilson Finally Figure It Out?

I don't know if anyone has noticed, but we're set up for greatness this Sunday. Normally I'm not the biggest fan of a million games at 1:00 pm ET, then only three in the 4:00 pm ET window but we can let it slide this week. Why? Because we have an absolute banger in that 4:00 pm ET window. That means we can do whatever the hell we want during the early slate and it won't even matter. We have a Daddy Bet that will clean everything up for us if should things go wrong. There's no better feeling in this world than watching a gigantic slate of 1:00 pm ET games, knowing damn well you have the banger of all bangers just waiting. It's like Christmas but better. I honestly can't wait.

Las Vegas Raiders vs. Denver Broncos Prediction

We're at DraftKings because they have the best number for this market. The people at FanDuel posted 22.5 (-110) which is nice but why the hell would you bet that when you can get a full point lower for the exact same price? That just feels kind of dumb. Still, if you have to play at FanDuel, you can since 21.5 and 22.5 feel kind of like no-man's land. It is what it is.

Now everybody and their brother are going to want to talk about how bad the Denver Broncos looked last week against the San Francisco 49ers. We all saw the game. It was a stand-alone primetime game. The thing is, the 49ers have one of the best defenses in the NFL if not the best. At no point were the Broncos ever going to run up the score on those guys. It just wasn't going to happen.

Now there were two other games this season where the Broncos looked less than stellar on offense but I can explain that. They're clean. In the first game of the season, they should have scored 30 on the Seattle Seahawks. They legit fumbled on the one-yard line twice. Who does that? In the second game, they moved the ball up and down the field on the Texans but had drives stall within two yards of the goal line. Field goals instead of touchdowns hurt.

This week they get the Las Vegas Raiders which is helpful to a team that has had trouble scoring points. Going from the 49ers to the Raiders is basically like going from "All-Madden" to "Rookie Level" on Madden. Every team that the Raiders have played has reached at least 24 points this season. One of those teams was the Tennessee Titans who couldn't score more than 20 on the New York Giants! This could be the greatest bet I've ever seen in my life.
