This may say it all, the Oakland Raiders will be blacked out for the second time this year for the residents in the bay area. The Oakland Raiders are 14 1/2 point underdogs at home against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Jamarcus Russell has struggled on offense, and now he goes against a defense that blitzes more than any other D in the league. Jamarcus Russell and the Oakland coaching staff say they welcome the blitz as it opens up the big plays. This struggling offense (31st in scoring at 9.8 points per game) and dead last in passing, with only 108 yards per game. Their last 3 games they have lost by 20, 23 and 37. Donovan McNabb plans on talking with Jamarcus Russell pregame, to let him know he is not alone, under pressure.

On the other end of the spectrum, this game looks great for Philly. McNabb looked great last week and RB’s Brian Westbrook and LeSean McCoy have almost 300 yards rushing and two touches into paydirt. With all the misdirections, traps and other plays thrown at Oaklands defense, it will be another long day for the silver and black.

The Eagles are favored by 14 1/2 points at bodog sportsbook, and this should be an easy cover.

Prediction Eagles win 35-3
