New England Patriots favored over unbeaten Las Vegas Raiders in Week 3

The New England Patriots are betting favorites as they host the undefeated Las Vegas Raiders Sunday in Week 3 at Gillette Stadium.

The Las Vegas Raiders (2-0) head east to play the New England Patriots (1-1) Sunday at 1 p.m. ET at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. Below, we take a look at the early Week 3 betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.

The Raiders opened their season with a thrilling 34-30 win at the Carolina Panthers, so they have already traveled to the Eastern Time Zone and had success. They’re coming off a 34-24 Monday night victory against the New Orleans Saints, winning their first-ever game at Allegiant Stadium, their new home.

The Patriots came up just short in Week 2, falling 35-30 on the road at the Seattle Seahawks, as QB Cam Newton was stuffed on a rushing attempt near the end zone as time expired. Newton still has four rushing scores through the first two games, and the offense is averaging 25.5 points per game.
