49ers vs Raiders Prediction 11/8/26 NFL Picks Today

49ers vs Raiders Prediction

I understand nobody wants to believe in the Raiders. The 49ers are far and away the more trustworthy team. They’re at home and have had an extra week to prepare. The Raiders can’t run the ball, and their defense isn’t good. The Raiders are 30th in total defense and 31st in both run defense and scoring defense. I get it. However, the Raiders continue to compete with a top-10 scoring offense, and they’re 6-2 ATS this season. The 49ers also have a lot of injuries on the offensive side of the ball. 

The Raiders continue to put money in our pocket while the 49ers haven’t cashed a ticket in three weeks. We’re getting double-digit points with a Raiders team that fights, and while they may be overachieving, it’s working up to this point. We’re to the point where we can admit the Raiders are a decent team. Flaws and all. Give me the points.
