Game Background
The Raiders, with an interim head coach and a rookie quarterback, recently secured a victory and now aim for a .500 record as they host the Jets in Sunday night's NFL action. These two original AFL teams have had some memorable matchups in the past, including the infamous "Heidi Game."
NFL Betting Lines Analysis
The Week 10 NFL betting market opened with the New York Jets as a one-point road favorite for Sunday night, alongside an over/under of approximately 36. Early betting has maintained these figures without much fluctuation.
Jets-Raiders Betting Preview
The Jets' recent three-game winning streak was halted by a 27-6 loss at home to the Chargers last Monday. Despite out-gaining the Chargers, the Jets struggled with third-down conversions, succumbed to eight sacks, and lost the ball three times due to fumbles. Their offense has produced just three touchdowns over the last four games.
Currently 4-4, the Jets are just behind in the race for the AFC playoff spots.
On the other side, the Las Vegas Raiders are experiencing a renewed sense of hope at 1-0 under their new head coach and starting quarterback, following a decisive 30-6 victory over the Giants. They showcased a balanced offensive attack and a secure handling of the ball.
The Raiders' performance has been unpredictable lately, with significant wins followed by disappointing losses, leading to a coaching change and a quarterback switch.
Common Opponents
Both teams have faced five common opponents this season: the Bills, Patriots, Broncos, Giants, and Chargers. The Jets went 3-2 SU, 2-2-1 ATS, with a +7 YPG, while the Raiders matched the 3-2 SU and ATS but with a -21 YPG.
Recent Meetings
The last time these AFL rivals met was three seasons ago, with the Raiders securing a 31-28 victory in East Rutherford, with Derek Carr and Sam Darnold as the starting quarterbacks for their respective teams.
NFL Betting Trends
This season, rookie quarterbacks are 12-20 SU and 12-18-2 ATS in the NFL.

Jets vs RAiders Free Pick ATS
In line with our NFL betting theory that teams often bounce back after a down week, and vice versa, we're predicting a comeback for the Jets after last week's poor performance. The Raiders, although coming off a win, are viewed as likely to experience a letdown. Our bet is on the Jets for this Sunday night's game.
