Who do you got in Week 2?
It’s that time of the week again — prediction time.
While the Las Vegas Raiders themselves have to get out, dust themselves off and get ready for Week 2 at the Baltimore Ravens, so do I.
I felt good about picking the Silver and Black in Week 1. I thought they would win a low-scoring game against the Los Angeles Chargers who would have trouble getting their offense together.
Well, of course, i got the low scoring part right. But a bad second half did the Raiders and me in as the Chargers won 22-10.
Onto Baltimore.
Well, folks, if I’m anything, I’m honest. I think the Raiders are going into a tough situation. The Ravens are angry after a tough loss at the Kansas City Chiefs on September 5.
The Ravens played well in that game, they’re well rested and their playing in their home opener. I’m not saying it’s impossible for the Raiders, but this is tough duty.
Prediction: Ravens 24, Raiders 13.
But if the Raiders can find a way to win, they will be in good shape, because their Weeks 3-5 opponents all looked awful in Week 1.
Now, it’s your turn.
