The Las Vegas Raiders had the advantage going into their Week 4 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. The Browns had 17 players on the injury report Thursday, and the Raiders only had nine.
Sure, nine is a lot, but comparatively, it's not as much as the Browns. However, that health advantage they had, even though it was small, they no longer have.
Now, it's flip-flopped. The Browns have the advantage, and it's not because the Raiders suddenly have more players show up on the injury report.
According to head coach Antonio Pierce on Friday before practice, Davante Adams and Maxx Crosby will not play Sunday. That's the Raiders' best two players.
They will also be without starting tight end Michael Mayer.
This fell apart quickly for the Raiders. They can still win on Sunday, but it may end up coming down to whoever is the worst team loses, not whoever is the best team wins.
