I’m not saying it’s gonna be a cakewalk but I’d need to see the Raiders beat a team like this before I felt confident picking them to do so. The Saints defense is much better than the Panthers and on offense, even sans MT and with an older Brees, I think the Saints matchups can create some problems. I could see a 30-27 type game that is not quite that close. Sure, the Raiders could win because NFL, but it’s not a fluke that the Saints are the clear favorite even with out Thomas.
