Las Vegas Raiders 2023/24 Odds Prediction

One of the NFL’s greatest ever franchises has been anything but since the turn of the century.

For a club that has two playoff appearances and zero playoff wins since reaching the Super Bowl in 2002, it makes sense why the Raiders are a longer shot to win the AFC West (+1200) than they are to have the Worst Regular Season Record in the NFL (+1100).

Once-franchise QB Derek Carr’s abrupt dismissal at the end of last season means Vegas has to start from scratch at the most important position on the field, too.

With Jimmy Garoppolo now under center, the Raiders have one of the league’s lowest Regular Season Win Totals at O/U 6.5. Las Vegas is fourth-favorite to have the Worst Regular Season Record at +1100.

Who is the Las Vegas Raiders head coach?

After playing a role in three Patriots Super Bowl championships, Josh McDaniels was hired as head coach of the Broncos at the age of 33.

He was given almost as much power as his former boss Bill Belichick had at Foxborough and used it to trade starting quarterback as he tried to reshape the organization into something more like the Patriots.

He won his first six games as a head coach but then lost 17 of his next 22 and was fired amid a videotaping scandal.

Returning to New England after a brief stint as OC with the St Louis Rams, McDaniels was part of the Patriots staff on three more Super Bowl titles and became the Raiders' first choice when they interviewed for the head coaching position after the 2021 season.

In 2018, he accepted the Indianapolis Colts job before withdrawing from the position the same day he was announced to stay on with the Pats.

Defensive end Maxx Crosby looks set for another big season, while there is plenty of excitement about rookie Tyree Wilson as he embarks on his first campaign in the NFL.
