What to Know
The Las Vegas Raiders will square off against the Cleveland Browns on the road at 5 p.m. ET on Monday at FirstEnergy Stadium. The Browns will be strutting in after a win while Las Vegas will be stumbling in from a defeat.
Las Vegas took a serious blow against the Kansas City Chiefs last week, falling 48-9. Las Vegas was in a tough position by the half, with the score already sitting at 35-3. QB Derek Carr wasn’t much of a difference maker for Las Vegas; Carr threw one interception and fumbled the ball once with only 5.84 yards per passing attempt. Carr ended up with a passer rating of 125.30.
Meanwhile, the Baltimore Ravens typically have all the answers at home, but last week Cleveland proved too difficult a challenge. The Browns came out on top in a nail-biter against the Ravens, sneaking past 24-22. The Cleveland offense checked out after the first half but had enough points banked to take the contest anyway. No one had a standout game offensively for Cleveland, but they got scores from TE Austin Hooper and WR Jarvis Landry. QB Baker Mayfield ended up with a passer rating of 133.
The Raiders are expected to lose this next one by 3. However, those who like betting on the underdog should be happy to hear that they are 4-2 against the spread when expected to lose.
Las Vegas is now 6-7 while Cleveland sits at a mirror-image 7-6. Two offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Las Vegas ranks second in the league when it comes to passing yards per game, with 302 on average. Cleveland has displayed some offensive firepower of their own as they enter the game with 143.5 rushing yards per game on average, good for fourth best in the NFL.
