OK - Tonight the truely terrible Oakland Raiders take on the truely over-rated Seattle Seahawks. Since I know there are a bunch of Seabird fans around here, Anyone up for a little wager? The line is Raiders getting 7.5 and I'm willing to bet up to 5G in game WoW gold.
The line is from the top google for "betting line" -- http://www.vegas.com/gaming/index.html
Any Takers??!?
Oh -- And Yes -- I do expect the Raiders to Win.

Grats on the win, Seahawks fans.. :beer:
Apparently the Raiders really are just that bad. :(
And yes - I still think Seattle's over-rated. :P
The Raiders offense is laughable. I mean they really are just terrible. Clearly, the WORST in the NFL. I found myself actually rooting for them in the second half out of pity - it just didn't seem fair. :) I'm not sure why the felt compelled to mostly run pass plays when their O-line could not maintain and semblance of a pocket. I think I would have run Lamont Jordan heavily and did some screens and options more.
I was surprised by Seneca Wallace. He's very fast and seems to make good decisions. Very able 2nd stringer. I don't think that the Hawks are over-rated. I think they have some key injuries, but when they get healthy they will do alright.
Over-rated?
The Hawks were missing 6 out of 11 starters on offense at a couple points this season. They are still missing their Pro Bowl starters at QB/RB (MVP of league) and are still managing to stay afloat at 5-3.
Defense has been a disappointment his season. I can't count last night because the Raiders are truly pathetic. On paper, I thought this years defense was going to be better and stronger than last years with the young guys having more experience and adding Peterson. But to date it's been disappointing.
