The Las Vegas Raiders should have very well beaten the Carolina Panthers. But, they didn't, because it's the Raiders, and this happens every year. Last season it was the Chicago Bears game against Tyson Bagent. The year before, it was Baker Mayfield, who had only been on the Los Angeles Rams for a few days.

The year before that, it was another similar situation. It happens at least once every year. Now, they have to put that behind them and get ready for the Cleveland Browns, whom they already have an advantage over entering Week 4.

The advantage comes with the fact that the Browns are dealing with injuries to some pretty serious and important players across their offense. One of the bigger ones is former All pro offensive lineman Wyatt Teller, the Browns standout guard.

According to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN, the Browns will likely be without Teller for a few weeks as he deals with a knee issue.

It looks like rookie Zach Zinter could replace him, which means that Christian Wilkins could be lined up against a rookie.

We know Wilkins hasn't done a ton so far this season in terms of the stats; however, he is pulling his weight, he's just being double-teamed a lot. Having a rookie on him may open up a lot more opportunities for not only himself but others as well.
