Raiders Coach Tom Cable has a lot more on his plate then just this upcoming game. Word is Raiders assistant coach Randy Hanson has hired an attorney and is expected to cooperate with police after Head Coach Tom Cable allegedly broke his jaw earlier this week in a scrap during practice which will result in felony charges against the Raiders head coach.

The effect this incident could have on such a young team is huge. It may be showing already this week in practice. This week the 49'ers and the Raiders sqaured off in a couple of practices which were completely dominated by the San Francisco 49'ers; and mainly by their defense. Defensive Coordinator Greg Manusky has to be very pleased with his units showing this week against the Raiders. Niners veteran corner back Nate Clements said it was the best defensive practice he'd ever been a part of. He intercepted 3 passes when the two teams faced off, Dre Bly and Diyral Briggs also snatched two passes from Raiders QB's.

Both Raider QB's Jamarcus Russell and Bruce Gradowski struggled. Gradowski threw two picks in the red zone and Jamarcus Russell threw back to back picks in the red zone drill as well. This really revved up the 49'ers defense after Raiders players were talking smack in the beginning of practice. For the rest of the practice the Raiders offense was dead silent as they got back in their huddles before the next snap. While all this was unraveling Al Davis sat in his golf cart dead silent as well. After practice Raiders players were humbled to say they were flat out dominated.

The 49'ers QB's didn't throw any interceptions and were said to have a solid practice besides a couple deep routes being off target because of being forced around the pocket. We really like the QB rotation for the 49'ers here in preseason with Alex Smith, Shaun Hill, and Damon Huard; who completed 14 of 18 passes for 2 TD's and 0 turnovers as a group against Denver in the 17-16 loss in their opener. As far as experience goes they have the definite edge here over Oakland.

This is Mike Singletarys first full season here as Head Coach and we expect him to have these guys plenty motivated for this game and use the energy form their great practices this week to feed off of coming into this game. The 49'ers were a dismal 2-5 ATS last year before Mike came in and he went 5-3-1 ATS to close out the season.

25 DIME - ANGELS

Absolutely love the value we're getting with the Halos Saturday morning because Los Angeles is not going to lose this game. Those that have been following me know that I've been preaching all season long about the motivation (or lack thereof) that arises after a one-run loss. When great teams come oh so close and drop ball games by one run, the fire in the belly stirs up and the majority of the time, they come out firing and win the ensuing game running away. Now, I'm not a forecasting a blowout and I'm not suggesting you play the runline, but I will say that chances are extremely good that the second best team in baseball is going to come out victorious tomorrow afternoon across the border.

Aside from being the best road team (37-25) in the American League, the Angels are an offensive juggernaut. Los Angeles boasts the Majors' highest batting average (.290), and they lead the bigs in hits, runs scored and runs batted in. Los Angeles also ranks second in on-base percentage and fifth in slugging. This isn't exactly the type of offense that Scott Richmond (6-6, 4.01), a middle-aged, inexperienced starter is going to be able to handle. Richmond is 0-1 with a 7.00 ERA in two starts since the All-Star break and the Blue Jays have lost five of his last seven starts. Ervin Santana gets the call for the Halos and while his season statistics aren't the greatest as a whole, he's finally beginning to show flashes of brilliance that the Angels' organization has expected all along. Unlike Richmond, Santana has been a boss lately, posting a 3-0 mark with a 3.00 ERA his last three outings and he's won five of his last six decisions. More importantly though, his fastball is gaining speed and life, his breaking ball looks sharp and he's going deeper into games.

Important intangibles always pull me in and I've found yet another one for today: the Angels have lost three consecutive games only three times this season and it hasn't happened since before the All-Star break back on June 20-22. Los Angeles lost 11-3 to the Tribe on Thursday and as mentioned earlier, they dropped a heartbreaker last night 5-4 to the Jays. I'm extremely confident that Mike Scoscia pulls out all the stops and that the Angels come out determined and hungry today. These two teams are going in two completely different directions what with the Angels leading the AL West and Toronto 20 games behind the Yanks out east. L.A. has won 7 of 10 games while the Jays have lost 7 of 10. And with Vegas continuing to discredit Santana and setting a very low line, I'm laying the chalk. Play the Halos.

Redskins -3 over Steelers
Pittsburgh had a huge scare when Big Ben left practice the other day. Tonight the Steelers are going to play allot of young guys and the last thing they need is a backup QB to get hurt. Washington is at home and will play their starters a little more. The Redskins also have four QB's that are capable of putting up points. Take the Skins at home.

Browns -3 over Lions
Detroit finally won a preseason game last week after going 0-16 last year. Detroit has improved, but can they win on the road and can they win against a 3-4 defense like the Browns. The 3-4 is confusing especially to youngster Matthew Stafford. The Browns maybe in more trouble then the Lions. Cleveland was dominated in every phase of the game last week in Green Bay. The Browns have not scored a offensive TD dating back to November of last year. The Lions were one of the worst defenses in the league so it would be nice to see the Browns put together some solid drives. This is a team that needs to play well at home today. Take Cleveland.
