Las Vegas has gotten over the hump and now is winning the close games after blowing several big leads earlier in the season. After defeating the Chargers 27-20 on Sunday, the Raiders have won and covered three in a row. In addition, the Raiders are in a similar position as last year when they had to win their final four games to eke into the playoffs. Derek Carr threw for 250 yards and Josh Jacobs enjoyed another great performance rushing for 144 yards on 26 carries and the defense stepped up again with cornerback Nate Hobbs returning from injury with a fumble recovery and Chandler Jones and Maxx Crosby dominating the Los Angeles offensive line. Davante Adams had eight catches for 177 yards. The Raiders went UNDER for the fourth time in six games and they now face the Rams, who have lost six straight and are a total mess at this point in the season. The Rams are averaging only 16.8 points and Matthew Stafford is on injured reserve and John Wolford started against Seattle on Sunday and threw two interceptions and he is questionable for this game with a neck injury. Bryce Perkins thought he was going to get the start last week, but Sean McVay made a late decision to play Wolford. Las Vegas is 7-3 UNDER its past 10 road games and Los Angeles is 17-8 UNDER its past 25 home contests. The Raiders are 8-3 UNDER following a win. Take the Raiders on the moneyline and the UNDER.
