Los Angeles Rams minus-5.5 vs. Oakland Raiders: $440 to win $400

The Raiders are in turmoil, with a new (old) coach, an overhauled roster and a vacuum left by the shocking trade that sent their best player to Chicago just before the start of the season. On the other side, the Rams spent the offseason adding pieces designed to get them over the hump and into the Super Bowl. As a result of that spending spree, L.A. might have the most talented roster in the league. It's the NFL and anything can happen, especially in Week 1, but the Rams definitely look like they are a touchdown better than the Raiders — even on the road. I'll give the points and take L.A.

Current Standings: Keefer (10-5, $11,418), Grimala (6-3, $10,300), Granger (4-3, $9,225), Brewer (4-7, $7,600)
