Las Vegas Raiders key player angrily announce his exist due to……

The Las Vegas Raiders were 5-5 two weeks ago, fresh off a defeat in which they scored the same amount of points as both of us. As absurd as it may sound, the Raiders are still eligible for the postseason in the future.

Although NFL.com gives them a 12% chance, the Raiders’ chances are still present, and given how they’ve played over the last two weeks, I’m hesitant to write them off. They are one game behind the four teams immediately in front of them, despite being 7-8 as of right now in the AFC, and this weekend they take on the Indianapolis Colts, who are currently ranked as the No. 7 seed.

The Colts have dropped two of their last three games, including a humiliating 29-10 loss to the Falcons and Taylor Heinicke last week, while the Raiders are on a high after winning back-to-back games. Has Gardner Minshew and the Colts’ luck run out? How serious each of these teams is about making the playoffs will be revealed in large part by their test on Sunday against what has developed into one of the league’s top defenses.

The other four picks all hit fairly easily for yet another perfect week, even though Josh Jacobs to score was our fifth pick of the week (and he didn’t play). With two weeks remaining in the season, we’re back on track and intend to stay there!

Given everything

Teams will dare Koonce to beat them as long as Maxx Crosby is on the other end of the line, given that Koonce has five sacks in his last two games. Indianapolis is tied for the third-worst sack total in the league after allowing four sacks per game over the last three weeks, so this large figure is too good to ignore.

I believe the Raiders will pound the rock and ask O’Connell to accept whatever the defense gives him, even though Josh Jacobs is listed as doubtful for this game. The Colts are a middle-of-the-pack pass defense, allowing 220.7 passing yards per game, despite their struggles against the run (I’d have a Zamir White prop for you, but there aren’t any lines with Jacobs’ status still unofficial).

The Raiders defense is playing with a confidence and swagger that makes an interception feel inevitable, and Minshew has thrown an interception in seven of his last ten games. Jack Jones is +700 to receive the pick, if you want to get wild. However, I’ll take the advantage of the higher odds and take the field against Minshew.

While taking the money line is more entertaining, taking the 3.5 points is the wiser course of action. In all seriousness, I believe the Raiders are superior to the Colts, and despite the fact that they are on the road, they are feeling very confident after defeating the Chiefs. Give me the Raiders in this game.
