Las Vegas Raiders vs Philadelphia Eagles: Preview and Prediction in Week 7
Game Prediction
The odds would point to the Raiders being heavily favored in this one, but this was also the case at home in Week 5 when the Silver and Black welcomed an underwhelming team in the Chicago Bears, who also started a shaky quarterback in Justin Fields.
For the Raiders, this should not be like that dreaded Bears game. The Eagles are indeed a weaker opponent, and the Raiders’ combination of a strong passing offense and up-and-coming defense should provide a victory for the Raiders in the desert.
If you’re a Raiders fan, then this should be a happy Halloween for you. The Raiders behind the revamped offense and play-calling of the offensive coordinator should be too much to handle for even a strong Eagles defense. Jalen Hurts will have his hands full with the Raider defensive line, and the Raiders should win this one convincingly.
Prediction: Raiders 31, Eagles 10
Next. 3 potential Marcus Mariota trades with the Browns. dark
