Oddsmakers seem to think the Patriots have a good chance to bounce back from their loss to the Bills last week.

According to Bodog, the current line has the Raiders getting 6 1/2 points.

Oakland is looking to continue its recent momentum after knocking off the Jets last week. The Raiders record currently stands at 2-1.

The Patriots were a good pick for their first two games, defeating both the Dolphins and Chargers by 14 points. Last week the Bills were getting seven points against New England and won the game outright by three.

The all-time series between the Pats and Raiders is deadlocked at 14-14-1. The two haven't met since December of 2008, when the Patriots put up 49 points en route to a 23-point victory. The last Raiders win against New England came in November of 2002, just months after Tom Brady led his team past Oakland and into the Super Bowl.
