The Raiders are somehow still favored to beat the Giants after firing everybody

The Raiders are STILL favored to beat the Giants, even after all of this week’s firings.

The Las Vegas Raiders effectively reset their franchise this week by firing head coach Josh McDaniels, general manager Dave Ziegler and offensive coordinator Mick Lombardi and benching quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo.

However, that’s not stopping oddsmakers from favoring the Raiders against the hapless New York Giants this week.

In a sign of just how bad things are in the Big Apple, DraftKings has the Raiders are the -1.5-point favorites on the spread to beat the Giants this week at home.

That is a major slap in the face to New York, even as it faces a rookie quarterback in Aidan O’Connell, who replaces Garoppolo in Las Vegas’ offense.

If you’re a Giants fan, you’ll have to hope your team doesn’t lose to a franchise that just fired three top people in leadership and benched its veteran quarterback for a fourth-round pick.

Maybe New York will surprise the sportsbooks, but Vegas seems to think the home team will still take care of business.
