Having some bye-week withdrawal? Don’t fret, because there’s plenty of action relevant to the Raiders’ playoff hopes taking place even with Oakland resting at home.

New Orleans (6-2) at Buffalo (5-3) – 10 a.m. PST

Oakland fans should obviously root for any NFC team playing an AFC team this weekend, but this matchup is especially relevant to the Raiders. The Bills already own the tiebreaker against the Raiders after a 34-14 win two weeks ago, so Oakland fans are hoping the Saints continue their hot start in Western New York.
