New England Patriots VS Oakland Raiders: Sunday Free Picks

New England Patriots VS Oakland Raiders: Sunday Free Picks: Remember what I said about hunches? Well, this isn’t one. I just flat don’t believe the Raiders are as good as they’ve played so far. They’re 28th in yards allowed through three games – 2 of them were against offensive powerhouses like the Denver Broncos and the New York Jets. I know they’ve played Buffalo (and probably should have won that game) but what are the Patriots going to do to that sieved of a defense? Gash it up, that’s what.

Darren McFadden is going to get his, no doubt about it, but the Patriots have to come in wanting to make Jason Campbell beat them. The Patriots are smart, they make you do the things you don’t want to do. On offense, they will take what you give them, but also do whatever they want because Tom Brady do what he want.

The Patriots lost last week because Brady hucked a bunch of interceptions – but that’s not going to happen this week Raider-fan, I promise. Brady hasn’t lost two games in a row since he was 11 years old. Okay, maybe that’s a lie, but it’s been a while.

Look for Ben-Jarvus Green-Ellis to have a nice game for the Patriots, and that balance should lead to some big ol’ highlights for SportsCenter to play on Sunday Night.
