Las Vegas vs New York Picks and Prediction

Pick: Las Vegas Raiders +1.5

Las Vegas is the better choice in this matchup because the Raiders have shown more offensive upside than New York through the opening portion of the season. The Jets have struggled to consistently move the football, and that could become a major issue against a Las Vegas defense capable of generating pressure. The Raiders should be able to establish enough offensive balance to keep New York from taking control of the game. Look for Las Vegas to make a few key defensive stops and take advantage of scoring opportunities to pick up a narrow road victory.

Total Pick: Under 45.5

Neither team has shown enough offensive consistency to expect a high-scoring game Sunday afternoon. New York has struggled to sustain drives, while Las Vegas has had its own issues finishing possessions with touchdowns. Both teams should look to establish their running games and control possession, which could limit the number of scoring opportunities. Expect a physical matchup with both defenses making enough stops to keep the final score below the posted total.

Final Picks: Las Vegas Raiders +1.5 and Under 45.5
