New Orleans +113 over Las Vegas

1:00 PM ET. The Raiders ended a 10-game losing streak last week with a 19-14 victory over Jacksonville, but let’s not confuse that with a sign of progress. That game was more about survival than skill, as Las Vegas benefited from playing an equally struggling opponent. Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce has been vocal about wanting his team to compete despite their woeful draft positioning, but effort alone won’t overcome the glaring issues plaguing this team. The Raiders have been one of the league’s worst offenses, ranking 29th in points per game and failing to top 20 points in six of their last seven outings.

Meanwhile, the Saints are coming off an outright disaster—a 34-0 drubbing at the hands of the Packers on Monday night. That performance was a low point in a season already trending downward, as Spencer Rattler led an offense that gained just 196 yards and turned the ball over twice. Injuries have gutted New Orleans as well, with Derek Carr, Alvin Kamara, Chris Olave, and Taysom Hill all missing time or playing through ailments.

There's no sugarcoating the lackluster results, as the Saints’ offense has managed just 47 points over their last four games, and their 2-5 home record suggests they haven’t been able to use the Superdome as a fortress. However, this game represents a chance for redemption, and pride has to come into play after such a humiliating loss.

The market has priced New Orleans as a home underdog, a reflection of their recent struggles and a perceived edge for Las Vegas after their rare win last week, but this feels like a prime buy-low spot for the Saints, whose defense remains respectable and should be enough to contain a Raiders team that struggles to generate offense under the best of circumstances. Las Vegas has little business being favored on the road against anyone in this league. The Saints’ shutout loss is fresh in everyone’s mind and their value couldn’t be more depressed. That’s where we step in.
