The Las Vegas Raiders are a proud franchise in the NFL, and they also have one of the most passionate fan bases in all of sports. Las Vegas was a playoff team a season ago, and they should be in the mix for a spot in the postseason yet again in 2022.
The win total betting lines are now set for the Las Vegas Raiders, and that’s a great betting opportunity. The current win total betting lines don’t predict a great season for the Raiders in 2022, but they should still be competitive.

Last Season
The final record for the Las Vegas Raiders in 2022 was 10-7, but simply looking at that mark does not tell the entire story for this team. Head coach Jon Gruden was fired midseason in 2021, but the Raiders were able to rally around interim head coach Rich Bisaccia.
Las Vegas didn’t have a long stay in the playoffs as they fell by a score of 26-19 to the Cincinnati Bengals.
Raiders Key Losses Heading Into 2022
Two of the biggest losses for Las Vegas are on the defensive side of the football heading into 2022. Cornerback Casey Hayward and defensive tackle Quinton Jefferson have both moved on from the team, but the Raiders did bring in some other talent to replace them.
Quarterback Marcus Mariota has also moved on, and that could be a problem if quarterback Derek Carr gets injured.
2022 Las Vegas Raiders Team Preview
Las Vegas should be a team that can put up points in a hurry as quarterback Derek Carr and Davante Adams will be one of the best duos in football. Las Vegas will have to find a way to have more balance on offense, but it’s going to take points to win in the AFC West.
Defense could be a pretty big question mark for the Raiders in 2022, and that unit could end up being the reason that they fail to reach the playoffs.
2022 Las Vegas Football Schedule
The six toughest NFL games on the schedule for the Las Vegas Raiders will likely come against opponents in the AFC West Division. Outside of the AFC West, the Raiders will play every team in the NFC West and AFC South Divisions.
The final three games on the schedule for the Raiders will be road games at New Orleans and Pittsburgh and a home game against the New England Patriots.
2022 Raiders Regular Season Win Total Prediction
The Las Vegas Raiders should be in playoff contention all season long, but that’s going to be the case for all four teams in the AFC West Division. Las Vegas feels like the team in that division with the most issues, and that could present some challenges.
The Raiders will not be a team that gets to double-digit wins in 2022, and it feels like eight will be the cap. Take the under 8.5 wins, as they just won’t be able to get to nine wins because of the schedule.
