NFL Picks & Predictions Against the Spread, Week 8

No. 5 Jets -2.5 Against Raiders


Records: Jets 4-2, Raiders 3-3


Last Week: Jets lost 30-23 to Patriots, Raiders won 37-29 against Chargers


Why the Jets Cover: The Jets have had a strong start to the season and gave the Patriots a run for their money last week. The Raiders have also looked solid, but the Jets are the better team. Expect the Jets defense to give David Carr and the running game fits. New York pulls away with this one in the fourth quarter and covers the spread. (Getty)
