Oakland Raiders (51) AT New Orleans Saints -1
The Oakland Raiders travel to New Orleans in a very interesting week 1 matchup against the Saints. The Raiders and their fan base are excited as they feel they can break their long playoff drought. Coach Jack Del Rio did a great job with a young Raiders team a year ago going 7-9 with a difficult schedule that included out of division games against the Bengals, Steelers, Packers and Vikings. With the NFC and AFC South divisions on the schedule this season, optimism is at an all time high for this team. The Saints on the other hand are still in salary cap Hell after years of awful spending trying to snag another ring before Drew Brees is washed up. They have two straight losing seasons and their once mighty home field advantage is gone as the have gone 7-9 at home the last 2 seasons.

Final Analysis And Free Pick
Opening day in New Orleans always seems to have crazy shootouts. Saints fans will be raucous and do their best to rattle that young Raiders offense into stupid penalties and mistakes. I’m not sure if it’s going to matter. These young Raiders got a lot of their growing pains out of the way last year and are ready to roll. The Raiders offensive line is going to be FANTASTIC this season. Look for the line to open up huge running lanes and for impressive RB Latavius Murray to have a big game, which will give more room for Cooper and Crabtree to hit some deep ones. The Saints offensive skill players leaves much to be desired. Brandin Cooks and Willie Sneed are serviceable receivers but they don’t scare you like past Saints receivers. Look for Khalil Mack and that Raiders defense to put pressure on Brees and create some havoc. The Raiders will win this game outright and fly home 1-0. The Pick: Oakland Raiders Money Line
