The Raiders are hoping to get in the win column against the Tennesse Titans who are both unexpectedly 0-2. Both teams were expecting to come out with better results and the tides will turn in Week 3.
The Tennessee Titans were run all over by the New York Giants in Week 1, and were picked apart by Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills in Week 2, as they look to be vulnerable on defense through the first two weeks. Mike Vrabel is a great defensive-minded coach, and will get his guys back to playing top-level defense soon, so don’t be surprised if the Titans look like a different team this weekend against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Las Vegas has gotten out to an 0-2 start of their own, so something that to give inside Nissan Stadium on Sunday morning.
What will the outcome of Raiders at Titans be?
Josh McDaniels and this high-octane offense need to catch a groove quickly, as Derek Carr must play clean football, spreading the ball around to his wide host of playmakers. McDaniels has to continue to pound the football with Josh Jacobs, as it was clear in the first half last Sunday that it will open up the passing game in a big way.
McDaniels is an excellent offensive mind, so he just needs to settle in with his new offense and go about the play calling as he did for so many years in New England, because right now, it seems he is in his own head overthinking.
Hunter Renfrow can’t have another two-fumble game again in Week 3, because whoever wins the turnover battle most likely will come on top. We still do not know if Renfrow is going to be available against Tennessee after suffering that big blow in overtime.
Davante Adams must show up as he did in Week 1 against the Chargers, because big-time players show up in big-time games, and none is bigger than this matchup as the Raiders look to get their season pointed in the right direction.
Raiders vs Titans: Best Bets for Las Vegas in 2022 Week 3
The Las Vegas Raiders are still looking for win No. 1 on the 2022 season, and here are some of the best bets for their matchup against Tennessee in Week 3.
Stopping Derrick Henry will be a tall task, but the Raiders defense has to slow him down in order to make Ryan Tannehill beat them through the air. Coming off such a lopsided loss to the Bills on Monday Night Football on a short week will be tough to do for the Titans, and I expect the Raiders to play their first full game of complementary football and leave Nashville 1-2.
Score Prediction: Raiders 27, Titans 21
