Predicting the Las Vegas Raiders 2021 season game-by-game

Week 11 vs. Cincinnati Bengals

One week after losing in front of the home fans against the Kansas City Chiefs, Las Vegas will get a golden opportunity to get it right against the Cincinnati Bengals. In a matchup inside ALlegiant Stadium, the Raiders will win their sixth game of the season, beating Joe Burrow and the upstart Bengals by a touchdown.

For Burrow, this is going to be an interesting season, as he is coming off a devastating knee injury as a rookie, and will have to prove he is all the way back. By Week 11, he should be at full strength, and by that time, he and former LSU teammate Ja’Marr CHase should be one of the better young tandems in the NFL.

Cincinnati is going to find the end zone against this Raiders defense, and the combination of Burrow and CHase will likely hurt them a time or two. However, Bradley does enough to corral this game late, and Derek Carr hits Henry Ruggs III for a game-winning touchdown with a little over four minutes left in the game.

Prediction: Raiders 27, Bengals 21
