The Pinnacle line was at -107, not -104. I will be happy to do the math for you (though I'd rather not have to do this every time), as sure as you are I did the wrong thing:

Probability the Raiders lose by 8 or more: 46.11%
Probability the Raiders lose by exactly 7: 5.36%
Probability the Raiders lose by 6 or less or win: 48.53%

Win calculation based on +7.5 -107 -- ($50)*(.5389)+(-$53.50)*(.4611)=+$2.28

Win calculation based on +7 +106 -- ($50)*(.4853)+(0)*(.0536)+(-$47.17)*(.4611)=+$2.51
