The Oakland Raiders (2-6) and Cincinnati Bengals (3-5) may only be one game apart in the standings, but the reality is that they are heading in very different directions.

The Raiders have already traded away their best player in WR Davante Adams, had to hand the QB reins back to Gardner Minshew after Aidan O’Connell suffered a thumb injury, are on a four-game losing streak, and are rumored to have superstar DE Maxx joining the team is turning. Crosby could also be moved before Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline.

The Bengals started the season 0-3 but have won three of their last five games and are certainly a dangerous team led by Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase. Chase has scored a TD in five of his last six games, and if you think he’s made it six of his last seven, take a look at his Usual TD Odds (-135).

Chase’s WR counterpart, Tee Higgins, is going about his day with a quad injury after missing last week’s loss against the Philadelphia Eagles, but Cincy has gotten a spark from second-year RB Chase Brown lately. Over the last four games, Brown has taken the leadoff mantle away from Zack Moss, outscoring him in consecutive weeks and scoring TDs in three of the four games.

While the rest of the NFL is chasing Crosby (6.5 sacks) in this matchup just before the deadline, Minshew better keep his head up against Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson, who has already made 7.0 sacks this year. If you think any of these rushing specialists are contributing to the sack totals this week, take a look at these odds ahead of the game when DraftKings releases them.

In addition to potential plays on Chase, Crosby, and Hendrickson, let’s dive into the matchup and find another sweat or two.
