The Cleveland Browns fell 20-16 to the Las Vegas Raiders after costly turnovers and a missed touchdown opportunity. Despite early momentum, the Browns now sit at 1-3.
BollywoodFever: The Cleveland Browns dropped to 1-3 on the season after a frustrating 20-16 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. Despite a strong start with two early scoring drives, the Browns couldn’t hold off the Raiders in the second half, allowing 20 unanswered points.
Cleveland’s fast start seemed promising, but the momentum shifted quickly after halftime. The Raiders opened the third quarter with a 34-yard field goal by Daniel Carlson, capping off an eight-play, 55-yard drive. The Browns then made a costly mistake on their next possession as a Deshaun Watson pass intended for Amari Cooper was tipped and intercepted. Las Vegas capitalized, with D.J. Turner running a jet sweep 18 yards for a touchdown, giving the Raiders a 10-point lead.
Cleveland’s defense responded when safety Rodney McLeod returned a fumble for a 25-yard touchdown, cutting the Raiders’ lead to 20-16. However, the Browns struggled to seize momentum. A would-be 82-yard touchdown pass from Watson to Cooper was negated by a holding penalty, halting their comeback attempt.
With the game on the line, the Browns faced a crucial fourth-and-three at the Raiders’ nine-yard line. Watson was sacked, ending Cleveland’s hopes for a late-game win and securing Las Vegas a four-point victory.
