The Raiders vs. Titans betting odds for Week 1 Sunday game had Tennessee as a -2.5 favorite after initially opening as a +1.5 home underdog.
#ReturntoGreatness is the Raiders hashtag and it should apply to this season.
Derek Carr has recovered from a broken leg, Khalil Mack will enter the season as a reigning Defensive Player of the Year and Marshawn Lynch joins this squad to make them a formidable contender. This is all the more true now that we see New England is more vulnerable following their Week 1 loss to Kansas City.
If the Raiders can overcome what many believe to be among the top five toughest schedules in 2017, this is a team that can go all the way with 15/1 odds of winning the Super Bowl.
Alas, Oakland takes on a new look Titans team that is expected to win 9.5 regular season games.
ESPN notes that the Titans were “built around a strong, young quarterback, a nasty offensive line and a power run game, all of which return in 2017”.
The Raiders have played Tennessee on two occasions, both on the road, since 2015. They have beaten them on both occasions.
