The Raiders (1-1) are set to face the winless Panthers at home Week three. The game is a prime opportunity for Las Vegas to earn a winning record and improve further under new coach Antonio Pierce.
But who can watch the Raiders on their local broadcast station on Sunday? Thanks to 506sports.com, you can know ahead of time and prepare accordingly. Their weekly broadcast map shows that the Raiders vs. Panthers game (the orange section of the map) will be aired in the Las Vegas and Charlotte areas along with some AFC West territory surrounding Denver. Kickoff is set for 1:05 p.m. Pacific time.
This game looks like an easy matchup on paper. The Panthers have been awful through two games thus far. They were so awful, in fact, that they benched quarterback Bryce Young, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.
That adds some intrigue to the game and also adds a degree of difficulty for the Raiders coaching staff. They had prepared for Young but will see veteran Andy Dalton instead.
Regardless, the Raiders will be fired up for their home opener. After their upset win over the Ravens, they know that any result is possible in the NFL, so they should be focussed as well. Pierce should be especially dialed in; he knows that a winning start to the season will go a long way toward building the culture he’s trying to solidify in Las Vegas.
