The Las Vegas Raiders hit the road to take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 8. Here is how you can watch all of the action.
Fresh off a loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this past Sunday, the Las Vegas Raiders will head East to take on the Cleveland Browns in Week 8. The Browns are coming off a win against Cincinnati, but suffered a major injury in the game, as star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL.
In comparison, the Raiders are actually getting healthier, as the expectation is that Trent Brown will be returning, which is good news for a team looking to get their running game back on track. Against Tampa Bay, the lack of practice time hurt the Raiders offensive line, which missed the entire week of practice due to COVID-19 protocol.
The game could certainly have huge playoff implications down the road, making this another big AFC matchup for the Silver and Black.

Cleveland comes into this game sitting at 5-2, and they are looking to keep pace in what should be a very exciting race in the NFC North. Mayfield had his best game in a while against the Bengals last Sunday, and will be going up against a Raiders defense that could not get any kind of push against Tom Brady in Week 7.
Las Vegas needs a win on Sunday, as a loss would be their fourth in their last five games, a tough stretch for any team looking to make the playoffs. They also have three straight games against the AFC West on the horizon, so this is not a time to be looking past the Browns either.
Anytime a team has to go East as a West Coast team, it is tough, but the Raiders are already 2-0 in those situations after wins against Carolina and Kansas City on the road. A third win would get them back above .500, but if the defense plays the way they did against the Bucs, Mayfield and this offense can make you pay.
