The shorthanded Raiders weren't fazed, downing the Browns — whose nightmare start continues — 20-16.
Las Vegas' beleaguered rushing attack finally found its footing, totaling 152 carries on 5.2 yards per attempt. And even without superstar Maxx Crosby, the team's defense attacked Deshaun Watson to the tune of three sacks and an interception. Cleveland's final red-zone try to take the lead was mostly foiled by perplexing clock management by Kevin Stefanski, who allowed time to dwindle and burned one of his final three timeouts before Watson was taken down.

Player of the Game
It was a career-best afternoon for Raiders edge rusher Tyree Wilson. Last year's seventh overall pick tallied seven pressures on a 23.3% pass-rush win rate. Wilson did well to generate pressure for a Las Vegas defensive line down one of the best defensive players in the league.
