Las Vegas Raiders at Cleveland Browns: Game preview and prediction
Game Preview
This is a game that should have big ramifications down the line, as both teams play in a division where it is going to be tough to catch the leader in the AFC North and West. That means that these two teams could be battling it out for a Wild Card spot, and a head-to-head victory will prove crucial when determining who gets in, and who is left out.
For Cleveland, the emphasis will have to be on attacking a Raiders defense that has had their issues all season long, and for the Raiders, vice versa. Both of these teams have the ability to put up points in bunches, and this one could come down to who has the ball last.
Cleveland is coming off a big divisional win against Cincinnati, a game that saw Baker Mayfield throw for five touchdowns. Las Vegas looked outstanding against Kansas City a few weeks back before the bye week, but lost 45-20 the last time out, so it will all depend on which Raiders team shows up in Cleveland.
