More on that below, but our Raiders only NFL Picks and Opinions are 2-1 to start the season after the Week 1 Pick on the Chargers and Week 2 Opinion on the Silver and Black, but Week 3 no good as Raiders embarrased in home opener loss to the lowly Carolina Panthers. \

Our NFL underdog picks are now 10-3 with another winner Thursday in Week 4, but no picks Sunday. Our 8th year posting NFL Underdog picks only at OSGA and Vegas Sports Zone with > 57% ATS and our 200th win Thursday.

I provide weekly NFL underdog picks including for Week 4. Each week’s Raiders roundup and picks/opinions are separate, unless mentioned otherwise. The projected rushing edge and guidelines in this Browns-Raiders matchup favors the Browns and the Raiders rank dead last No. 32 in rushing at just 51 yards per game thus far this season on a league-low 18.3 rushing attempts per game (Browns 22). Teams rush to the window against the Raiders as Las Vegas’ defense is allowing 157 rushing yards per game to rank No. 30 in the league (Browns 113). Tough to trust POS quarterback ding-dong Deshaun Watson, but the Browns should be able to run their way to a lower-scoring win.

The loser of this injury-plagued matchup of 1-2 teams is going to come under more heavy pressure and media scrutiny.

Rushing Stats To Produce Profit 

NFL teams that win the game SU when the point spread is -6 or less are 31-4-2 ATS this season following a 10-0 ATS result in Week 3. It was greater than 90% last season at 148-15-3 ATS (where else would you get that info).

Fairways Football Forecast has hit at a greater than 57% ATS the past 7+ seasons including a 70% season in 2021 going 28-12 ATS. Last season our underdog picks went 11-1 in December, and following a 7-2 ATS start this season, we’ll continue to shoot for more birdies and green on the gridion while also evaluating the Las Vegas Raiders matchup and game each week.
