Congratulations to the NFL on a successful first Sunday, figuratively beating the odds against Coronavirus. Kudos to the sound designers who created the illusion of teeming crowds (complete with booing of the referees) in empty stadiums. A few quick takeaways: The Las Vegas Raiders rewarded their new fanbase with a 34-30 win over the Carolina Panthers in a barnburner, blowing past the 48-point over/under. A new prop bet should be offered on the number of DraftKings and FanDuel ads per game. This week it went to FanDuel, 4-2. And Raiders coach Jon Gruden has really porked out in the offseason. Step back from the casino buffet, coach.

The canned crowd noise annoyed me, it was often ill timed, and made it seem like a fumble had occurred… I sure hope the NFL can pull this off, it was fabulous watching three major sporting events at the same time Sunday afternoon, the lady golfers in the desert showing major skill along with major sportsmanship, the amazing US Open tennis final, and Brady vs Brees… I would play the over on the Raiders a lot, they score a bunch and cant stop anyone, their running back could lead the league in touchdowns…
