NFL Week 13 Free Pick - Kansas City Chiefs at Oakland Raiders



Dave looks at one of the featured Week 13 matchups this Sunday, an AFC battle between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Oakland Raiders.


The 9-2 Kansas City Chiefs return to action this Sunday as heavy 15-point road favorites for Sunday’s 4:05 p.m. start in Oakland on CBS against the 2-9 Oakland Raiders. Elite-rated VietBet has set the total line for this AFC West tilt at 55.5 points.

The last time bettors saw the Chiefs in action was in a wild shootout against the Los Angeles Rams on a Monday night that resulted in a tough 54-51 loss as three-point road underdogs. The PUSH in that showdown left Kansas City at 8-2-1 against the spread at VietBet. It has gone a very profitable 5-0-1 ATS on the road this season with the total going OVER in five of those six road games.

Much has been made about the play of second-year quarterback Patrick Mahomes. While the overall hype has been dialed up to a rather high level, he continues to prove that he is the real deal with his play on the field. With 478 yards passing and six touchdown throws in that recent aerial circus against the Rams, he has thrown for 3,628 yards and an incredible 37 touchdowns in his first 11 games.

Oakland Raiders NFL predictionQuite a few teams have pushed Oakland around this season, including Baltimore in Sunday’s 34-17 loss as a heavy 13-point road underdog. The Raiders have failed to cover in six of their last seven games as part of their overall record of 3-8 ATS. The total went OVER VietBet’s closing 42-point line in Sunday’s loss and it has gone OVER in three of their last five games. Oakland is 1-4 ATS this season in five previous home games.

Adding injury to insult from Sunday’s loss, quarterback Derek Carr was forced to leave the game twice after enduring yet another physical beating. This offense continues to spiral downward with an average of 338.3 total yards a game. This includes less than 100 yards a game on the ground. Oakland is averaging 17.0 points per game while allowing an average of 29.7 points on defense.

The Chiefs have had some issues covering large spreads in the past, but they should still win this game with relative ease. What I am banking on is Kansas City’s offense taking this total OVER almost on its own.
