The Raiders come into this game 6-7 overall, but trending downward after losing their last 2 games in a row including the blowout loss last Sunday against the Chiefs 48-9.

In that Week 14 game against the Kansas City Chiefs, the Raiders’ lost four fumbles and running back Josh Jacobs only put up 24 rushing yards, so with those stats you can see why they lost by 41 points.

Tight End Darren Waller has been out the last few games and will be out for this one, but wide receiver Hunter Renfrow has been stepping in up big time.

Last game Renfrow was targeted 14 times and put up 13 receptions for 117 receiving yards and a touchdown.

The bad news is that in the last 3 games, the Raiders defense has been the worst in the entire league, giving up an average of 32.7 points while offensively only scoring an average of 20 points.

The Raiders are 1-5 against the spread in their last 6 games and the total has gone over in 12 of Las Vegas’s last 18 games.

Cleveland Browns Betting Preview

The Cleveland Browns come into this game 7-6 overall and chasing that playoff spot with the Ravens losing to the Packers on Sunday.

The Browns unfortunately got hit hard with 23 players and three coaches on the health protocol list. Special Teams Offensive Coordinator Mike Priefer will act as the head coach in place of Kevin Stefanski.

Quarterbacks Baker Mayfield and Case Keenum plus running back Kareem Hunt were on the list. If Baker Mayfield and Case Keenum aren’t removed from that list Monday, they you’ll see Nick Mullens start. With Mullens at the helm, you’ll see an increase workload for running backs Nick Chubb and D’Ernest Johnson.

The Browns are top five in the NFL in rushes per game and rushing touchdowns per contest and they’ll be facing this horrible Raiders defense.

Cleveland these last 3 games have been struggling offensively only scoring an average of 15.7 points, but their defense has been top notch only giving up an average of 16 points.

The Browns are 1-4 against the spread in their last 5 games this season and the total has gone over in 11 of Cleveland’s last 16 games against an opponent in the AFC.
