The Las Vegas Raiders are hosting the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Here is everything to need to know about the game:
First quarter
The Raiders won the coin flip and deferred to the second half.
Raiders’ safety Jeremy Chinn was inured on the first drive. He jogged off the field. The Raiders forced the Browns to go three-and-out. The Raiders’ defense has forced three-and-outs in eight of their 11 games. That leads the NFL.
On the Raiders’ first drive, Geno Smith had Tre Tucker wide open but he missed him badly.
The Raiders had to punt and the Browns returned it 44 yards and punter A.J. Cole was called for tripping. It gave the Browns the ball at the Raiders’ 13. Cleveland quickly punched it in to take a 7-0 lead on a direct snap with 8:24 to go in the quarter.
The Raiders had four yards on 10 plays on their first two offensive drives.
Malcolm Koonce recorded his first sack in Week 1 and the Browns are forced to punt.
The Raiders have had three offensive drives and they have punted three times.
Browns’ rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders hit fellow rookie Isaiah Bond for a big bomb to to the Raiders’ three. The Browns then scored a touchdown on a wildcat run again. It’s 14-0 Browns with 48 seconds to go.
Oh Boy.
Ashton Jeanty gives the Raiders’ some life with a 25-yard catch-and-run to give the Raiders the ball near mid-field at the end of the first quarter.
Second quarter:
Daniel Carlson’s struggles continued as he missed a field goal to end a once-promising drive.
Charles Snowden intercepted a bad pass from Sanders and the Raiders were able to turn it intoa field goal. The Browns lead 14-3 with 8:10 to go in the half.
