Browns vs Raiders Prediction, Odds and Picks | Pickswise

I am pretty low on this Raiders defense overall, but not low enough to take the over in a game involving Deshaun Watson and Gardner Minshew. Neither quarterback is starting-caliber right now, and Minshew’s coming off a game where he got benched late against the lowly Carolina Panthers. He is clearly on a short leash with Aidan O’Connell breathing down his neck, and I’m not expecting much here against a Cleveland defense that has still been giving opposing quarterbacks a tough time this year. Even in the Raiders’ one big offensive explosion this year against the Ravens, they still finished the day with just 260 yards of total offense.

As for Cleveland, Watson is circling the drain and he has yet to average more than 5.5 yards per attempt in a game this season. Last week against a Giants defense that is far from elite, he took 8 sacks, bringing his total for the year up to a whopping 16. He’s still looking for his first 200-yard game of the year, and neither team has any ground game to speak of to take some of the pressure off their struggling quarterback. Las Vegas is dead last in the league in both total rushing yards and yards per carry, while Cleveland has struggled to get their signature rushing attack going behind a shoddy offensive line and with Nick Chubb still sidelined. Points should be at a premium here.
