Despite the uncertain status of Jayden Daniels, Neil Parker is bullish on the Commanders covering at home following the Raiders' dismal showing on MNF. Both the Las Vegas Raiders and Washington Commanders are coming off prime-time losses in Week 2, so the two clubs will both be looking to bounce back at Northwest Stadium on Sunday, September 21.
While Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels’ knee injury threw a wrench in the odds for this Week 3 tilt, my earlyHere are our early thoughts on the spread and total for this week’s game. We will have a full game preview later in the week. Still, Washington has the mini bye week following their Week 2 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football, while thelost 20-9 on MNF and now have to travel to the East Coast for an early Week 3 game. Mariota has started 74 games across his 10-year career, and this is also his second season with the Commanders, so I’m not anticipating a monumental drop-off offensively. Washington head coach Dan Quinn just witnessed a perfect blueprint for containing the Raiders, so the Commanders should deliver a solid defensive showing in Week 3 and cover at home. This total has dropped considerably following the news of Daniels’ knee injury, and after the Raiders were only able to score nine points and gain just 218 yards on offense in Week 2, I don’t think it’s dipped enough.ranks 29th in adjusted EPA per play and 31st in success rate among 34 qualified QBs through two weeks. While I expect the Commanders to be able to move the ball on offense, there’s obviously a considerable difference in the big-play potential if Mariota starts instead of Daniels. : Our team of experts has thoroughly researched and handpicked each product that appears on our website.
