Davante Adams and the Las Vegas Raiders kick off the 2024 NFL season against Jim Harbaugh's Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday on CBS and Paramount+. The Silver and Black finished last season with an uninspiring 8-9 record, and they look to turn things around with Antonio Pierce firmly established as head coach. They visit a new-look Chargers team that went 5-12 last season and is hoping for big changes in Harbaugh's return to the NFL.

Week 1 NFL picks for Raiders vs. Chargers
Before tuning into Sunday's Chargers vs. Raiders game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine's advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season on an incredible 181-129 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season. It is also on a 35-21 roll on top-rated NFL picks since Week 7 of 2022.
For Chargers vs. Raiders, the model is backing the home team to cover the spread in the NFL betting lines. This game could end up being close, given that Justin Herbert has better numbers than Gardner Minshew but LA has fewer offensive weapons and is weak up the middle defensively.
However, Harbaugh is expected to turn the Chargers around quickly since he won a Coach of the Year award for rapidly transforming the San Francisco 49ers in 2011. The Raiders are comfortable with Antonio Pierce calling the shots, but frustrations on offense -- particularly from Adams -- could play a role. The spread is tight, but the model is confident the Chargers will win and cover. You may be able to stream the game here.
