2017 Oakland Raiders game-by-game predictions
Need proof Oakland is seen as an up-and-coming power? The Raiders, who have the fourth-toughest strength of schedule in the NFL, will be on prime time a franchise-record five times in 2017 and again play host to an international game in Mexico City. They again plan on staying in Florida for a week to lessen the weariness of cross-country trips and back-to-back roadies on Christmas night in Philadelphia and in Los Angeles against the Chargers to end the season. This could tell the tale of what might be the Las Vegas-bound Raiders’ final season in Oakland, and whether they are true contenders or pretenders.
Week 1: Sunday, Sept. 10, at Tennessee Titans, 1 p.m. ET
