#13. Miami (Week 4, Wembley Stadium)
Quality of Opponent
Miami are crazy, dysfunctional and everything lazy writers like to stereotype the Raiders to be like. Yet they spent some good money again and still nearly made the Wild Card while having two offensive linemen leave the team because their locker room was like a frat house gone out of control. Nobody really knows how the Dolphins are going to look come Week 4 because that is just how crazy their 2013 was.
Rivalry
None really.
Location, Location, Location
Positive people: Hey the Raiders get to play in one of the most famous stadiums in the world!
Negative people: The Raiders lost a home game to go play in ******* Europe!
Chance of Victory (Extremely Early Prognosis)
Toss up. Both teams have new look rosters and will be travelling overseas to play at a neutral stadium, although I think the Raiders will likely have the crowd advantage based on their international fanbase in this one. Because of that alone I am taking a shot in the dark and saying this is a win for the Raiders in 2014 if all goes well in London.
