What to Know

The Las Vegas Raiders will look to defend their home turf Sunday against the Miami Dolphins at 4:05 p.m. ET. Coming off of a win even when the odds were against them, the Raiders have to be feeling especially confident now that the spread is in their favor.

Las Vegas beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 26-17 last week. Las Vegas QB Derek Carr was slinging it as he passed for two TDs and 382 yards on 37 attempts. Near the top of the highlight reel was Carr's 61-yard TD bomb to WR Henry Ruggs III in the fourth quarter.

Most of the squad's points came courtesy of special teams, which contributed 14. K Daniel Carlson delivered a perfect 4-for-4 game.

Meanwhile, the afternoon started off rough for Miami last week, and it ended that way, too. They were dealt a punishing 35 to nothing defeat at the hands of the Buffalo Bills. Miami was down 21 to nothing at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. QB Jacoby Brissett had a memorable game, but not in the way you want to be remembered: besides failing to produce a single touchdown, he threw one interception with only 169 yards passing.

It could have gone either way late during winning time for Las Vegas or Miami when the two teams previously met in December of last year, but it was the Dolphins snatching the 26-25 victory. Can the Raiders avenge their loss, or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll soon find out.
