The Las Vegas Raiders will battle it out against Baltimore in Week 1, and here are three bold predictions for the Monday night matchup.
Week 1 can tell a lot about a team and how they will perform in the 2021 season. For the Las Vegas Raiders, having a great performance against the talented Baltimore Ravens could be a huge tone-setter for the team, especially in a year where they are playoffs-or-bust.
To get such an important win, Las Vegas will need great performances from their top players, and a few surprise performances could go a long way too. It has been a solid offseason for the team, filling in voids on both sides of the ball, and they go into this one fairly healthy outside of the linebacker group.
Baltimore, on the other hand, is really banged up heading into Week 1, but they are a perennial playoff team and should be one of the best in the AFC once again in 2021. Fans will finally be able to invade Allegiant Stadium, hopefully giving the Raiders a decided advantage in what should be an exciting Monday night matchup.
So, here are a few bold predictions for what could unfold on Monday night.
