This Mexico City game has become a high-profile game with Oakland coming in at 7-2 and Houston at 6-3. The Raiders have amazingly assembled some quality top draft pick talent, and meshed it with a roster that includes 19 un-drafted players. While Oakland is 7-2 they have out-gained opponents by a scant three yards per game. I think Houston is going to do what they have done best, which is run the ball, eat clock, and try to limit the opportunities for Oakland's explosive offense. Houston has rushed for 97 yards or more in all but one game on the season, and Oakland has allowed 100+ in five of their last seven. The gameplan should include a lot of clock-eating handoffs. Oakland has scored 30+ in three straight games, and since the end of last season, teams that have done so have played 8-1 to the UNDER. Take this one UNDER the total.
