Bettors in Las Vegas disregard regional biases in order to favour the Raiders. According to Todd Dewey of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the Raiders are "runaway leads" in terms of betting on the Super Bowl and money.
The head of Red Rock Resort's sportsbook, Chuck Esposito, told Dewey that the Raiders' support goes beyond the choice of name.
Esposito continued, "We've seen early movement on the Raiders' point spread and money line. They are in favour of anything Raiders.
The Raiders are 3.5-point underdogs in Los Angeles. They defeated their AFC West foe in overtime to finish the regular season in 2021.
After acquiring Josh McDaniels from the Patriots and Davante Adams, the Raiders had high expectations.
The AFC West has been won by the Kansas City Chiefs the last six years. While the Broncos signed Russell Wilson, the Chargers signed Khalil Mack.
