Oakland Raiders 2014 Season Win Total Outlook & Projection:
2014 Oakland Raiders Las Vegas Season Win Total Line;
As of this writing, oddsmakers have the 2014 NFL regular season
win total line
for the Oakland Raiders set at 4.5 wins.
This represents a reduction of 1/2 win compared to last season’s
closing line of 5 which the Raiders went under with a record of (4-12).
Factors working in the Raiders’ favor in 2014 include
stronger ratings on the offensive line, defensive line, and at linebacker
compared to the same time entering last season… Furthermore there
is a fair level of excitement over rookie QB Derek Carr among Oakland’s
wide receivers.
On the down side, the Raiders are rated lower at running back
compared to the same time entering last season.
Schedule Analysis:
In 2014 the silver & black find themselves with the league’s toughest schedule,
with the combined winning percentage of their opponents in the prior season
checking in at .578 in the prior campaign.
The tough SOS should come as no surprise with
3 division rivals making the playoffs last season… Not to mention suiting up against
the NFC West with the likes of Seattle, San Francisco, and Arizona this season.
Overall the Raiders will play 9 games versus teams that made the playoffs last season… That’s over
50% of their schedule.
Record Projection:
In 2014 we project the Raiders to go (2-14), falling under the
Vegas regular season win total of 4.5 wins…
While there’s no question their defense should be improved, and the offense might be as well,
it might be difficult for improvement to show up in the record column
given Oakland’s frightful SOS in 2014.
