The Raiders were announced as 1.5-point favorites over the Buccaneers. Depending on which sportsbook you look at, the line has dropped to either even (basically a pick'em), or the Raiders are currently posted as one-point favorites.
Tampa is coming off their most impressive win of the season, stomping Minnesota on Thursday Night Football, 36-17. The Bucs also had a competitive loss to the Saints and crushed the Chiefs in the two previous weeks, so they have been playing well.
Oakland has been doing well themselves. The Raiders are riding a two-game winning streak into this contest, beating the Jaguars in overtime and the Chiefs in Arrowhead. The Raiders have also had a competitive loss to the Falcons, so they've put together several strong performances since their bye week.
