NFL Preseason Week 2 Betting: Raiders vs. 49ers Free Picks and Odds

Oakland over SAN FRANCISCO by 6

You didn’t think we’d let you go through the betting pre-season without one of our famous ‘Double Entendre’ (teams playing with double revenge from last season – one loss in exhibition and the other during the regular season), did you?

Unlike last year when it occurred multiple times, the situation only occurs once this entire pre-season and we’re not about to let this opportunity pass us by. The Jaguars delivered for us in this role as a 3* BEST BET in last season’s exhibition opener at Philly and we’ll look for the Silver & Black to make amends for a pair of losses to the 49ers in 2010.

With both Oakland and San Francisco under new regimes, we’re a little hesitant to upgrade this to Best Bet status but the feeling here is we want no part of new coaches that find themselves favored this pre-season as they will likely struggle trying to put the pieces in place following the lockout.

By the book – and the bay – the ‘Raiduhs’ get their revenge as they improve to 4-0 ATS in road openers since 2008 here today.

The 49ers are -3 point favorites against the Raiders and the total is set at 34.5 at Bodog sportsbook.
