(NFL) Minnesota vs. Las Vegas, 08/14/2022 4:25 PM, Score: 20 - 26
Point Spread: -4.00 | -110.00 Las Vegas (Home)
Result: Win
The Vikings finished off last season a disappointing 8-9 and missed out on the playoffs for the second straight season. Kevin O’Connell will be running the show this season in Minnesota and with a new general manager there are plenty of fresh faces for the Vikings organization.




The Raiders got the win in the Hall of Fame game to open the season and come into this year with high expectations. The Raiders are primed to make it 2-0 on Sunday in the preseason and being at home will be a major reason why, in addition to having played a game already. The Vikings know that they'll be without Cousins at QB.
For the Raiders, they have a pair of backups with starting experience in the league, and even down some starters, they have plenty of talent in the depths, in both sides to come away with the win in this one. Rust is likely to be a huge factor in their season pre-opener.

Take the Raiders in this one as I expect them to get a comfortable win over a team that has nothing really to show in the preseason this early.
