Week 2: vs Arizona Cardinals
This is a huge game on many levels for Las Vegas, as it will be their home opener, and newly acquired star Chandler Jones will be taking on his former team. Jones was an All-Pro with the Cardinals, and he has already taken to social media to talk about how much he cannot wait to play in front of Raider Nation.
For the Raiders, they get the Cardinals at the right time, as DeAndre Hopkins will still be serving his suspension for this matchup. That gives the team a significant advantage on the defensive side of the ball, and on offense, they should be able to move it against this Cardinals defense.
In the end, I believe the Raiders are going to win this one going away, and get out to a 2-0 start for the third straight season. With Allegiant Stadium going crazy, Jones gets revenge on his old team, as the Raiders win their home opener.
Record: 2-0 overall, 1-0 in AFC West
