Silver Minings: Raiders-Falcons predictions

OK, we all know the Raiders are riding a nine-game losing streak, their longest losing skid in 10 years.

I have gone with the Raiders’ opponents in eight straight games during this streak in our weekly Saturday NFL prediction tradition.

This week, though, I have a feeling. I really think the Raiders are going to win. I’m sure you’re asking why and it’s a fair question.

Here are my reasons:

Every team wins once in a while.

The Falcons stink too and have lost four straight games.

The Raiders are still trying to win, whether some fans want them to tank or not.

So, I think the streak ends Monday night.

Raiders 20, Falcons 16.

Now, it’s your turn.
