Las Vegas over Cleveland
4:25 PM EST. In case Raiders QB Gardner Minshew forgot just how fickle life as a starting pivot can be in the NFL, the contrasting ends to his games in Weeks 2 and 3 certainly hammered that point home. In Week 2, Minshew was a hero, leading the Raiders back in Baltimore on a drive that set up the game-winning field goal in the biggest upset of the week. Then, in Week 3, Minshew found himself on the bench at the end of the game after he was sat with Las Vegas losing to the woeful Panthers at The Death Star on The Strip.
His QB was not the only player that coach Pierce was critical of in light of the Raiders' loss to the Panthers, as he called out members of his locker room for not showing up on Sunday, quipping that, “There were definitely some players that made business decisions.” Pierce’s team was embarrassed, at home to the Panthers and if a team is supposed to embody their head coach, we’d expect a bounce back here, as Pierce is as proud as they come and his team ran through a wall for him after he took over last season. The Raiders are better than they are being credited for here, but that’s what happens when you lose to the pitiful Panthers.
As for the Browns, there is little doubt about who the starting QB is, and that’s because Deshaun Watson has over $200 million in guaranteed money being paid to him, so until he breaks down or is thrown in prison, he’s going to be the man under center. The Browns aren’t without their share of drama too, but it’s mostly related to Watson and his off-the-field issues.
On the field, the Browns offensive line is in shambles, as Pro Bowl guard Wyatt Teller is heading to IR and they lost two tackles in their loss to the Giants on Sunday. In that game, Watson went just 21-for-37 passing for 196 yards and two touchdowns, while the Browns posted just 217 yards of total offense. Watson was also on his back all day, with the Brownies beleaguered O-Line allowing him to be sacked eight times. After three weeks, the Brownies rank 31st in total offense, and 30th in passing yards per game. Win, lose or draw, the Browns might be the worst team in football, which makes the Raiders the only option here.
