Las Vegas at San Francisco

The Raiders trailed the Rams 28-6 at halftime on October 25 and the Jets 23-14 last Sunday. Braelon Allen ran for 121 yards in that first half against the Jets, and Las Vegas is 4-4 while San Francisco is 6-1 and coming off its bye. Kirk Cousins still opened the Jets game by going 4-for-5 for 59 yards and throwing a 12-yard touchdown to Brock Bowers. Dylan Laube then returned a kickoff 95 yards for a score, and the Raiders had 14 points on the board before the break. Cousins finished 19 of 26 for 247 yards in that game, and his offense moved on its first possession against a defense that had just been run over. San Francisco's receiver room is thinner this week. Mike Evans did not practice Wednesday or Thursday, Christian Kirk missed Thursday, and Christian McCaffrey returned only as a limited participant. George Kittle has 425 receiving yards and five touchdowns, so Brock Purdy is leaning on the tight end while the wideouts around him are hurt. A team with three offensive weapons banged up after two weeks off gets its first two quarters to find a rhythm, and the Raiders' passing game is built to hang around early. Back the Raiders on the first-half spread Sunday afternoon.
