The Oakland Raiders will take on the Minnesota Vikings today, and here is how you can catch all of action online, and on television.
The Oakland Raiders will begin an incredible road trip today, as they travel to Minnesota to take on the Vikings in NFL Week 3 action. The Raiders and Vikings are both coming off losses in Week 2, to division rivals as well, and will look to move their records to above .500 for the season.
Derek Carr could have a true No. 2 wideout in the mix on Sunday, as J.J. Nelson was a full participant in practice this week. Tyrell Williams has certainly emerged as a true WR1, and if the team continues to work Darren Waller at tight end, they have three legitimate options in the passing game.
In the backfield, running back Josh Jacobs has started to emerge as a legitimate Rookie of the Year candidate, and is currently ranked No. 4 in the NFL in rushing yards. Against a tough Vikings defensive line, the Raiders will need a lot from Jacobs, who suffered through an illness this past week.
Overall, this should be a solid matchup, and will likely come closer than the nine-point spread put out by Vegas.

Minnesota has weapons of their own on offense, including an incredible wide receiver dup in Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen. Quarterback Kirk Cousins is the biggest wildcard for them in this one, as he has a tendency to look really good one week, and really bad the next.
The Raiders looked so good in Week 1 on both sides of the ball, and will need that same kind of effort against a very good Vikings team on Sunday. If the Raiders can come away with the road win, it will be a huge boost to a team that will not play again in front of their home fans until November 3.
