Expert Predictions for NFL Week 11 – The Athletic

Both Cincinnati and Las Vegas entered this match 5-4 and skaters lost two games. Cincinnati had a bye week to regroup after being hit with 41-16 shells by the Browns. The Bengals made 24 fewer offensive plays than the Clevelands but crossed three times and yielded 7.8 yards each time to the Browns. Joe Burrow threw 13 touchdowns and three interceptions in five wins versus seven TDs and eight INTs in four losses. Even with the Bengals falling a bit, bookmakers want them back on track as they opened as 2.5-point line favorites at the Raiders.

Las Vegas could have a lot of trouble with Cincinnati here. The Raiders were beaten 41-14 by the Chiefs last Sunday night. Vegas gave up 516 yards and more than 35 minutes of possession to Kansas City. The Raiders played less than 25 innings, passing 1/9 on the third table and overturning the ball twice. The loss left them 1-2 in the AFC West with Kansas City warming up, the Chargers owning a head-to-head and Denver only back in the bottom half of the game. This looks like a definite victory for the Raiders.
