The Las Vegas Raiders are betting the house on Fernando Mendoza today.
At 4:05 p.m. ET, the Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback will start for the Silver and Black for the first time against Drew Lock’s Seattle Seahawks at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium.
Prior to this game, the 23-year-old Indiana alum has completed just six of eight passes for 48 yards. His lack of play is largely due to veteran Kirk Cousins’ impressive efforts through the first nine weeks that led the team to a 4-5 record before Las Vegas shipped him to the Minnesota Vikings.

“This is a new experience, it’s great,” Mendoza said at a press conference.
It won’t be a walk in the park for Las Vegas, though. Mendoza and co. will have their work cut out for them taking on the defending Super Bowl champions, who are currently without Sam Darnold.
Although Mike Macdonald’s club has been hampered by injuries, they still sit at a respectable 5-4, which is good enough for second place in the NFC West and for oddsmakers to give them a 6.5 to 7-point advantage today.
Still, don’t forget that Mendoza was undefeated at Indiana last year.
While we don’t know just what to expect today, there’s a very real possibility that he just might keep that perfect streak intact.
If you want to tune in to see Fernando Mendoza’s debut as a starting NFL quarterback this afternoon, here’s what you need to know.
