It’s time for our weekly tradition of picking the Las Vegas Raiders’ games.
The 4-5 Raiders are going to try to beat a quality team for the first time this season in Fernando Mendoza’s starting debut when they host the Seattle Seahawks at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday. Kickoff is set for 1:05 p.m. PT.
The defending Super Bowl champion Seahawks are 5-4. They have not been as strong as they were last year and they are playing without starting quarterback Sam Darnold. But they are still dangerous.
