Dawgs By Nature
The Cleveland Browns opened as 3-point underdogs against the Las Vegas Raiders ahead of their Week 12 match-up, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. The over/under on the game is 36.5.
The Browns (2-8) are coming off of a 23-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, a game that saw Shedeur Sanders make his NFL debut in relief of Dillon Gabriel. Unfortunately, neither quarterback could do anything, and what was once a 16-10 halftime lead turned into a loss and a sweep for the Ravens against Cleveland. Now, all eyes are on Gabriel’s status this week — if he remains in the concussion protocol, Sanders will make his first career start in Las Vegas.
The Raiders (2-8) are coming off of a 33-16 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, a game in which they never seemed to stand a chance. After beating the Patriots in Week 1, it’s been all downhill for Las Vegas, as Pete Carroll and Geno Smith’s first year with the Raiders has been a disaster. If you thought the Browns’ offense was bad (ranked 31st), wait until you look in the mirror at the Raiders (ranked 30th). The over/under of 36.5 might be a little generous.
