3 Reasons the Raiders will beat the Cleveland Browns in Week 15

3 Reasons the Raiders will beat the Cleveland Browns in Week 15

Raiders pass rush should dominate

As we stated earlier, the Browns will be without Jedrick Wills Jr., their starting left tackle in this game, and they have already been without Jack Conklin due to a knee injury. The Browns are going to be severely short-handed along the offensive line in this game, and the Raiders pass rush has to take advantage of that.

We know how good Yannick Ngakoue is, and Maxx Crosby may not rack up the sacks, but he is a guy who is keyed on every play. In addition, the Raiders have also seen the emergence of Malcolm Koonce in recent weeks, and you have to wonder why he has been a healthy scratch for most of the season.

Against this offensive line, the Raiders pass rush could prove to be the difference in the game.

Las Vegas Raiders: 5 realistic head coaching candidates for 2022

The Las Vegas Raiders will be in the market for a new head coach this offseason, and here are five realistic possibilities for the job.

Overall, this is not only a game that Las Vegas should win, but it is a game that they must win if they want to keep their AFC Playoff hopes alive. If they cannot beat a Browns team with so many starters out, they do not deserve to make the playoffs, but an east coast win this late in the season, no matter who is out for the other team, could mean a rejuvenated Raiders team going into the final three weeks.
