Red Rock sportsbook, Station Casinos share predictions on Raiders making to NFL playoffs next season

The 2022 Stanley Cup was finally concluded after a grueling NHL season as well as the NBA Finals, and the stretch run of the baseball season is drawing near.

Red Rock Resort sportsbook director Chuck Esposito, knows that it’s football season. Esposito and his trading crew added many props over the weekend to Station Casinos’ NFL futures and team totals.

“It’s never too early to start talking football,” Esposito said, as per Las Vegas Review-Journal “We started talking about it and thought these would be appealing and interesting.”

Local bettors might be interested in the prop “Will the Las Vegas Raiders make the playoffs?”. The yes is a +175 underdog, while the no is a -220 favorite.

Last season, the Raiders went 10-7 and made the playoffs for the first time since 2016. However, they lost to the Cincinnati Bengals in the wild-card round, who went on to win the AFC championship.

The AFC West is the 13-5 Super Bowl favorite at Station. The division is good. The Raiders’ season begins on September 11 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Denver Broncos and the Kansas City Chiefs are their next opponents.

Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams is 10-1 to lead the league in receiving yards. Last season, he was third behind Rams’ Cooper Kupp and Vikings’ Justin Jefferson. Kupp led 7-1 the NFL in catches, yards, and touchdowns in 2021. Then, the second choice is Jefferson at 15-2.

Derrick Henry, a running back for the Titans, has a 5-1 chance of getting the most yards on the ground in the NFL. Henry fractured his foot and missed the last nine games of the 2021 regular season, but he still finished in the top 10 in yards.

Jonathan Taylor of Indianapolis is the 11-2 second choice. He won the rushing title in his second season. Dalvin Cook of the Vikings is 8-1, but Esposito thinks Najee Harris of Pittsburgh is worth 12-1. Kenny Pickett is 13-2 to win Offensive Rookie of the Year. Saints’ Chris Olave is 7-1, and Jets’ Garrett Wilson is 8-1.
