  • The Las Vegas Raiders have -150 odds to have OVER 7.0 wins this season.

  • Las Vegas is the -250 favorite to finish last in the AFC West.

LAS VEGAS – Jon Gruden is entering his fourth season as the Las Vegas Raiders’ head coach and has yet to have a winning season. Sportsbooks do not think that this season will be the one to push the team over the .500 mark.

Las Vegas Raiders 2020 Season

The Las Vegas Raiders went 8-8 on the season despite having a -46 point differential. The team finished second in the division but missed the playoffs. The offense was solid, putting up the eighth-most yards per game, but also had the second-worst turnover differential in the league at -11.

The team focused on strengthening their defense as well as the offensive line through free agency and the NFL draft.

Las Vegas Raiders 2021 Season Odds

Despite having eight wins a season ago the odds suggest the Raiders may be heading in the wrong direction.

Las Vegas Raiders 2021-2022 Total Wins

  • OVER 7 -150
  • UNDER 7 +115

While seven or eight wins doesn’t make for a horrible season, it may just not be enough to compete for a playoff spot.

Las Vegas Raiders - To Make The Playoffs

  • Yes +250
  • No -360

The Raiders have had just one playoff appearance in the last 18 years and it seems as if the team may be pushing the 20-year mark soon. The AFC West is a pretty tough division and the Raiders are expected to be at the bottom of it.

AFC West Team To Finish 4th

  • Las Vegas Raiders -250
  • Denver Broncos +350
  • Los Angeles Chargers +450
  • Kansas City Chiefs +10000

Coming off of a second-place finish in the division a year ago, this would be a big step down as well as the first time finishing last in the AFC West since 2018.
