Cam Newton and the Patriots will have a favorable matchup against a Raiders’ defense that simply doesn’t have a ton of talent. They looked good against the New Orleans Saints on Monday Night Football, but the Patriots will not suffer that same fate.
Here are three things to expect from Newton this week against the Raiders.
3. At Least 300 Passing Yards, Two Touchdowns
While his legs have been the main source of production for Newton this season, his arm has looked good as well. Against the Raiders, the Patriots will unleash his arm to the tune of 300 yards and two touchdowns. Newton also won’t throw an interception.
2. Another Two Rushing Touchdowns
In each of the first two games this season, Newton has scored two rushing touchdowns. That will continue in Week 3. Newton will find the end zone twice with his legs against the Raiders en route to another big production game from the offense.
1. Newton Leads The Patriots To Victory
The Raiders are without question a team to keep a close eye on in the AFC playoff picture this season. However, the Patriots are the better team if they play to their potential. Newton will help power New England to a big-time win with yet another impressive performance.
We are predicting that the final score of this game will be 31-24 with the Patriots coming out on top.
