Week 1 is always tricky. Crazy stuff happens and it is usually not an indication of things to come. If you don’t believe me, just look at last year. The Raiders won (pretty easily) at New England last year in Week 1. The Raiders, of course, went on to earn the No. 1 overall pick in the draft and the Patriots went to the Siper Bowl.
So, yeah.
The Raiders and Dolphins are in similar situations as they are beginning new coaching eras with rebuilding teams. Honestly, I’m not sold on Malik Willis and I kind of think the Raiders may be a bit further along in the rebuilding process. I think it will be fairly close, but I’m going with the home team.
Raiders 20, Dolphins 17.
