When the Cleveland Browns lost to the New York Jets in Week 10, all talk of “easy matchups” should have gone out the window. The Jets were a bad football team that had just traded away two of their best
defenders prior to the game and the Browns still found a way to lose.
Both teams continued their losing ways in Week 11 and are now fighting it out in the 2026 NFL draft order
along with teams like the Las Vegas, the Browns Week 12 opponent.A look at the Raiders schedule shows a shocking Week 1 win against the now-impressive New England Patriots and a Week 6 victory over the one-win Tennessee Titans. Like Cleveland, Las Vegas has often struggled to score points under new OC Chip Kelly, with games of 0, 6, 7, and 9 points this season. The offensive line is so bad, but the coaching staff can’t play two of their young players, Caleb Rogers and Charles Grant, both third-round picks, because of how bad they are:
With Myles Garrett and company coming to town, the Raiders could be in for a long night. Good news for Browns fans hoping for a win.
On the other side of the ball, despite having Maxx Crosby, Cleveland’s Shedeur Sanders could have plenty of time to throw the ball. Las Vegas is near the bottom of the league in getting pressure on the quarterback, something Sanders has struggled with in his time in the NFL. Shocking that with Crosby, the Raiders are second to last in pressure rate:
For the Browns and their fans, no team can be seen as an easy win after the Jets debacle, but the Raiders set up as a perfect opponent to cure some of the ills that have haunted the team.
