Cleveland Browns vs Las Vegas Raiders Prediction

I have no idea what to think about the Browns or Raiders as they've both had highlights but are coming off massive lowlights. I will say I trust the Raiders at home more than the Browns on the road, and Las Vegas' top-5 passing attack through 3 weeks is the one thing that stands out between these two teams. Watson is still in prove-it mode after falling off a cliff since getting moved from Houston. The Raiders are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games as a home favorite while the Browns are 3-7-1 ATS in their last 11 games as a road underdog. Give me the Raiders and the small number.
