Shoe In of the Week

Even though they won and covered, I was not impressed with the Broncos performance last Sunday. New England basically self destructed. This week the Broncos travel to Oakland. I think the Raiders, if they stay healthy, have an outstanding chance of reprersenting the AFC in the Super Bowl. I expect their defense to shut down the Bronco's and Gannon is a hell of alot better QB than Brady. I know the Bronco's have had a history of beating the Raiders under Shanahan, but these are different teams this time around. I also expect the Raiders want to make a statement addressing this issue (especially on Monday night) and I look for them to win fairly easily. Take Oakland and give the 5 1/2. Its Big Al's shoe in of the week.--Big Al--
