Week 5: Raiders Visit Patriots After New England's Upset in Buffalo
The Las Vegas Raiders visit the New England Patriots on Sunday, October 11. Las Vegas is 3-1 after a 30-27 home loss to Kansas City in which Kirk Cousins threw for 365 yards and the game ended on an interception after a rushed final play that Klint Kubiak took the blame for. New England is 2-2 after a 29-26 win at Buffalo in which Drake Maye threw three touchdown passes and ran for 54 yards; the Patriots are without guards Mike Onwenu and Greg Van Roten.
Which Maye shows up
Six interceptions in three games, then three touchdowns and none in Buffalo.
Cousins' volume
Fifty-two attempts against the Chiefs; Brock Bowers has 16 catches in two games.
New England's line
Two starting guards out against Maxx Crosby.
AI Prediction
Raiders 
Patriots Las Vegas has the more reliable offense
One hundred fifteen points in four games against New England's 65.
New England at home after its best win
The Patriots' defense allowed 16 points in its first two games and is capable of this.
Protection is the swing
Two guards out against Crosby is why the lean is for the visitor.
A Low-confidence road lean in a game the model has close to even.
