Why are so many people liking OAKLAND?

I know that KC is not as good of a team in the past when Trent Green and Priest Holmes running the show but why is that so many people betting in Oakland? Its just curiousity! Oakland do have the talent to be a decent team in this league but in my opinion, it will take sometime and some guidance. Well, I think their coaching staff sucks! So why wasting $$$ on them. Personally, I would pass on the play but maybe some of these great cappers know something that I don't. Please, some advise would be appreciated.....Thank you.....

Betting the NFL is like playing the stock market and right now Oakland's value is low after Monday night and KC's is high after nearly taking the Pats to overtime on their own field.

Last year the line for this game in Arrowhead opened at Kansas City -5' and now its only 3'?

PEACE

KC is a very good home team - this one will be over by halftime

nfl tends to flip flop weekly, Raiders and bengals looked awful last week, Tenn and chiefs looked pretty good. I think thingd change this week and oak and cinci should both wim or at least keep it close in oak's case. But you never know Just an opinion like every one else. Good luck whoever you take

Oak has always had a following.
Looks like a low scoring game. That is the way I will play it.
Agree>>> KC plays there best at arrowhead

Huard will need a wk or 2 to become better consistent with team. Oakland will run the ball, ball control. If they score early and first...KC might not have a comeback in em to win. First drives should dictate the game.

agreed, oakland looked terrible last week, O line was terrible as well as the coaching. This game is a watch and learn game IMO, I will certainly not take the points as the raiders have alot to prove!!!!
