Arizona Cardinals vs Las Vegas Raiders Prediction, Odds, Picks & Best Bets NFL Preseason

NFL Betting Picks in Summary

• Jacoby Brissett 10+ Passing Yards
• Jeremiyah Love 5+ Rushing Yards
• Ashton Jeanty 5+ Rushing Yards

Arizona and Las Vegas both plan to play their real starters Thursday night, but only briefly — head coach Mike LaFleur said it could be "one drive, max of two for those main guys." That makes this a genuinely balanced matchup on paper, and it pushes the best value toward individual props rather than the spread.

NFL Predictions and Picks for Preseason Week 1

Arizona Cardinals at Las Vegas Raiders (Thu, 8 p.m. ET)

Jacoby Brissett 10+ Passing Yards (-158)

Brissett is confirmed starting and taking real first-team snaps, even if it's only for a drive or two. That's enough of a runway for a veteran of his experience to clear a modest 10-yard floor comfortably.

Jeremiyah Love 5+ Rushing Yards (-108)

This is Love's actual NFL debut — the No. 3 overall pick didn't see the field in the Hall of Fame Game, with Bam Knight and Corey Kiner soaking up those carries instead. Whatever touches he does get tonight, a single 5-yard gain is a low bar to clear.

Ashton Jeanty 5+ Rushing Yards (-132)

Jeanty enters as a genuine feature back for Las Vegas, and even a brief starter's workload should be enough for a single 5-yard carry against an Arizona front that's rotating in reserves early.
