AFC West rivals will face off in Week 1 as Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers host Maxx Crosby and the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday on CBS and Paramount+. The Chargers are looking to rebound from a disappointing and injury-riddled 5-12 2023 season and are hoping that new head coach Jim Harbaugh can help them turn things around. Meanwhile, the Raiders are looking to best last season’s 8-9 record and are hoping for consistency with Antonio Pierce established on the sidelines.

Week 1 NFL picks for Raiders vs. Chargers

Before tuning into Sunday’s Chargers vs. Raiders game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine’s advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season on an incredible 181-129 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season. It is also on a 35-21 roll on top-rated NFL picks since Week 7 of 2022.

For Chargers vs. Raiders, the model is backing the home team to cover the spread in the NFL betting lines. Las Vegas has the better defense and could help keep things close against an LA offense that no longer has Keenan Allen or Mike Williams. Herbert looks like he could win the QB battle, however, as he had a 20-7 TD-INT ratio last season compared to Gardner Minshew’s 15-9 ratio.

The bar is set high for Harbaugh to turn the Chargers around quickly since he was able to do so with the San Francisco 49ers in 2011. Sunday’s crowd at SoFi will also come into focus since the Raiders still have a huge fanbase in Southern California. Sunday’s game could ultimately be a close one, but the model is leaning on the Chargers to win and cover. You may be able toΒ stream the game here.
