The now Las Vegas Raiders will have to wait to open up their new stadium until Week 2 against the Saints, which is a Monday Night game. Tough spell for the Raiders as it will be a game they will be underdogs by a wide margin for. They open the season against the Panthers, and then after the Saints game will go to New England before returning home to face the Bills. Las Vegas will face four playoff teams in the first five weeks before having their Bye Week in Week 6. It is no surprise to see the Raiders having the third toughest strength of schedule. After the bye week, the Raiders will face the Buccaneers at home before going on the road to face the Browns and Chargers. They return to face the Chiefs and Broncos, and the divisional games are going to be tough given these defenses are projected to be solid. Towards the end of the season Las Vegas goes to Atlanta and New York and will have three home games in the final four weeks. However, outside of Miami these are not looking like winnable games to close the season.
