Game Preview

The Raiders have a win and a loss during the preseason. After playing 23-23 against the Seahawks on the road, they lost at home to the San Francisco 49ers, 22-19. This one was decided by Jake Moody’s 59-yard field goal with 13 seconds to go.

Asthon Jeanty showed his resiliency, not just by scoring a TD, but also by enduring tough hits, and the No.6 pick from this year’s draft indicated that he might be a game-changer for this franchise. And an Offensive Rookie of the Year.

Cards beat the Chiefs, 20-17 at home, and then lost at the Mile High in Denver, 27-7. Though, most of the players in the latter were second-stringers, which explains a huge oscillation in result compared to the first meeting.

The sole positive thing for Arizona in that game was Jacoby Brissett’s 6-for-8 passing and his 57 yards with one TD. Kyler Murray will have a decent backup.

Las Vegas Raiders lead the series against the Cards, 6-5.

Raiders vs. Cardinals Predictions

There are way more oscillations in Arizona’s performances than in Las Vegas’, but they have Brissett, who should get more action here. So far, he has three touchdown passes in the preseason, and he will be the sole reason for us to take the Cardinals. No spreads, no nothing, just plain moneyline.
