YTD: 0-0

2 units OAK +8 at NE

simple...NE lost both its offensive and defensive coordinators, lost some playmakers on defense, whereas oak gained moss, jordan and collins...i don't like the oakland d, but their offense will be formidible this yr, provided they give collins time to pass..kerry has one of the better arms in the league and has proven he throws a great deep ball and is very accurate when protected....if oak can keep the zone blitzes off him, and run jordan enough to keep NE honest they will have a chance to win this game....if they can't run and have to drop back and pass every down, even w the great wideouts they possess, itll be trouble....on defense looks for oak to play a lot of zone keep NE in front of them and make brady dump the ball off...i think they will key on dillion and make brady and the WRs try to get rac yards to make plays....IMO oak keeps this one close and NE pulls out a squeaker...kind of reminds me of the NE/Indy game from last yr, oak has a similar kind of offense with similar playmakers...lets go raiders
