Oakland Raiders vs New York Jets 11/24/19 NFL Betting Odds and Prediction

The Oakland Raiders go on the road against the New York Jets when these two teams meet on Sunday at the MetLife Stadium.

These teams are on winning streak heading to this game. The Raiders defeated the winless Cincinnati Bengals 17-10 last Sunday to extend their winning streak to three games. Oakland is now tied with Kansas City for the lead in the AFC West. On the other hand, the New York Jets sparked the Washington Redskins 34-17 for their second straight victory. The Jets are 3-7 on the year and head to this game as the NFL betting underdogs against the Raiders.

Tied for Lead

The Oakland Raiders beat the hapless Bengals last week to improve to 6-4 SU on the season. The Raiders are looking for their second playoff appearance since 2002 and are currently making the push with three straight wins that have given them a tie for the lead in the AFC West Division.

Derek Carr led the Raiders against the Bengals. The 36th overall pick of the 2014 NFL Draft had a near-perfect game against Cincinnati as he completed 25 out of 29 passes for 292 yards with one touchdown and one interception. Carr has thrown for a total of 2,494 passing yards this season with a total of 15 scores and only 5 picks. Josh Jacobs rushed for 112 yards against the Bengals and he has run for 923 yards with 7 rushing touchdowns on the season.

The Raiders rank 9th in the NFL in rushing at 128.2 rushing yards per game and they are 13th in passing at 243.5 passing yards per contest. Oakland is allowing opponents to score an average of 25.0 points per game this season while placing 18th overall in scoring at 22.5 points per outing.

Two in a Row

The Jets have struggled to pick up wins this season but New York heads home this Sunday after two wins in a row. New York picked up victories over the Giants and Redskins in their last two games to improve to 3-7 SU on the season. The Jets have won their last five home games against the Raiders and Oakland has not won in New York since 1996.

Sam Darnold threw for 293 yards with four touchdowns and only one interception against the Redskins. Darnold’s four touchdown passes were caught by different receivers and the Jets offense has generated an average of 28 points per game and 340 total yards since Darnold’s meeting with head coach Adam Gase after their Week 10 loss. Le’Veon Bell leads the Jets with 508 rushing yards on 191 carries with 3 touchdowns.

The Jets have one of the worst offenses in the league this season. They rank next to last in passing yards at 176.1 per games and they are also second from the bottom in rushing yards at 72.1 per contest. New York is averaging just 16.4 points per game and is allowing an average of 25.5 points per outing.

Who Wins?

Oakland is 5-2 SU in their last seven games played. The Raiders are 2-13 SU in their last 15 games played on the road. New York is 4-16 SU in their last 20 games played. The Jets are 2-8 SU in their last 10 games played at home. Head to head, the Jets are 6-4 SU in their last 10 games against the Raiders. New York is also 5-0 SU in their last five home games against Oakland.

The Raiders are in a position to make the playoffs for only the second time since 2002. At 6-4 SU on the year, they have forced a tie with the Kansas City Chiefs atop the AFC West Division. With only one opponent in their remaining six games having a record above .500, they have a legit shot at the postseason.

The Jets offense is second-worst in the NFL this season but after quarterback Sam Darnold sat with head coach Adam Gase after their loss to the Jaguars in Week 10, the New York offense looks rejuvenated. However, with their last two wins coming at the expense of two of the worst teams in the league, the Jets need to step up their game to beat the Raiders.

All of Oakland’s wins this season have come by one possession. Last week, the Raiders turned to their defense to help them beat the Bengals 17-10. I expect a well-fought game here against the improved Jets offense. New York has the best rush defense in the league but the Raiders have the 9th best passing game. I don’t think that the Jets can score enough points to win this game.

Other Bets to Make

The Raiders are 5-2 ATS in their last seven games played and 2-2 ATS in four road games played this season. Oakland is 4-2 ATS in their last six games played on a Sunday. The Jets are 4-8 ATS in their last 12 games played. New York is 2-3 ATS in five home games this season, 1-6 ATS in their last six games against the AFC Conference, and 2-9 ATS in their last nine games against the AFC West Division. Head to head, the Raiders are 4-1 ATS in their last five games against the Jets.

Nothing has come easy for the Oakland Raiders this season but despite that, they have found ways to win games. When the betting lines opened, the Raiders were at a -4.5 and I was leaning towards betting on the Jets at that time. However, the lines have moved to -2.5 for Oakland and I think that while this is going to be another close win for the Raiders, they are going to win by at least a field goal.

Prediction: Raiders -2.5

The total has gone over in six out of the last eight games played by Oakland. The over is 3-1 in the Raiders’ four road games played this season and the over is 8-1 in their last nine games against the AFC East Division. The total has gone over in five out of the last six games played by the Jets. New York has seen the total go over in four out of their last five November games played. Head to head, the total has gone over in five out of the last six games between the Raiders and Jets.

These teams have combined to score an average of 45.4 points in their last 10 meetings and 50.67 points per game in their most recent three encounters. The Jets have one of the worst offenses in the league but their defense is just as bad. In their last four games, the total has gone over with an average total of 50 points per game. This one should go over.

Prediction: Over 46.5
