The Oakland Raiders head to the east coast in an attempt to continue their winning ways against the 3-7 New York Jets in a game strongly considered a “trap game”.

The Oakland Raiders have looked like a playoff team lately, winning their last three games and sitting in a spot to make the playoffs. At 6-4, the Raiders are one game behind the Kansas City Chiefs for the division and are currently in a spot to be a wild card team.

The Raiders will face off against the New York Jets this week in a critical game. The Raiders need to win this game to tie the Chiefs and continue their momentum heading into a Week 13 matchup against their division rival.

The Jets are 3-7 this season but have won their last two games, looking better and better each week. The Jets are not a team to sleep on, and many people are considering this game a “trap game”.

Here is our game preview and prediction for Sunday.
