Las Vegas Raiders at Carolina Panthers: How to watch Week 1
By Brad Weiss
The Las Vegas Raiders open up their 2020 slate against the Carolina Panthers on the road. Here is how you can check out all the action.
Week 1 of the 2020 NFL season is almost here, and the Las Vegas Raiders will hit the road to take on the Carolina Panthers. Last season, the Raiders finished with a 7-9 record, erasing a surprising 6-4 start to the campaign by losing five of their last six games.
The hope for the first season in Las Vegas is to finally get back to the playoffs, something they have done only twice since the 2002 NFL season. General manager Mike Mayock has done a tremendous job revamping the roster heading into 2020, bolstering the linebacker group, adding explosive wideouts, and fixing most of the holes that were evident last season.
All of the preseason talk goes away this Sunday, and here is television information for Week 1.

Derek Carr enters his third season in Jon Gruden’s offense, and his seventh as the franchise quarterback for the Raiders, so the expectation is that he can get this team back to the playoffs. Last season, Carr put together another solid statistical season, but until the wins start stacking up, the fan base will continue to be split on him.
These are two teams who are looking to rebound after missing out on the playoffs the last two seasons. If Teddy Bridgewater can find the magic that made him one of the better young quarterbacks in the league back when he was with the Minnesota Vikings, the Panthers should be okay, but there are a lot of question marks heading into Year 1 under Matt Rhule.
