Our model calculates projections around each moneyline, spread and over\/under bet for every game on the NFL calendar based on data points like past performance, player matchups, betting trends, and weather forecasts.<\/p>\n
Once the model is finished running, we put its projection next to the latest betting lines for the game to arrive at a relative confidence level for each wager.<\/p>\n
Here are the best bets our model is projecting for Sunday\u2019s game between the Raiders and the Patriots:Moneyline: NBC Sports is staying away from a play on the MoneylineSpread: NBC Sports is leaning towards a play on the Raiders +3.5.Total: NBC Sports is recommending a play on the Total UNDER 45.5.<\/p>\n
The single most important factor in considering taking the Total UNDER 45.5 is how inept the Patriots\u2019 offense has been. The numbers are genuinely staggering. New England ranks 32nd in offensive DVOA (-29.9%) \u2014 dead last in the entire league. They\u2019re scoring just 12.0 points per game (31st), and they\u2019ve managed only 2 total touchdowns in three games (32nd). Their touchdown percentage is 1.11% (32nd) \u2014 the worst mark in football by a wide margin. If you believe Drake Maye will struggle as he has for much of the season, add in the Raiders\u2019 defensive profile and you can make that case for the UNDER. Vegas ranks eighth in points allowed (18.0 per game), third in sacks (8), third in quarterback pressures (34), first in pressure rate (35.42%), second in sack rate (8.33%), and fourth in interception rate defense (3.12%). They also rank eighth in completion percentage allowed (61.46%) and fourth in interceptions (3). It all adds up to a defense that gets after the quarterback and takes the ball away\u2026.which suppresses scoring.<\/p>\n
To that end, the most compelling angle for the Under is the turnover differential between these two teams. New England has thrown 6 interceptions in three games \u2014 worst in the league \u2014 while Las Vegas has forced 3 interceptions (4th) and ranks 4th in interception rate defense (3.12%). Maye\u2019s turnover issues are a profile problem, not bad luck, and he\u2019s facing a Raiders\u2019 defense that gets after the quarterback and takes the ball away.<\/p>\n
Turnovers kill drives, and in a game with two struggling offenses, that\u2019s exactly how you keep a total under 45.5. The Patriots\u2019 defense has been so dominant on third down and in the red zone that opposing drives stall regardless.<\/p>\n
Raiders should feel \u2018confident\u2019 despite loss to KC<\/p>\n
Klint Kubiak may or may not have called his shot, but despite the loss, Mike Florio and Chris Simms continue to praise the \u201cgutsy\u201d Raiders for falling just short of a signature win.<\/p>\n
