The 25-year-old compiled seven sacks last season. The Raiders also signed offensive lineman Zach Hurd to the practice squad. |

Unlike teams in the NFC East and those such as the New York Jets, the Saints don't have to fret about lack of media absorption or what was said about another loss. Instead, the Saints continue to glide and will put the finishing touches on three straight weeks as a visiting team Sunday against the division-rival |

OVERALL ANALYSIS Though their defense hasn't been quite as celebrated, the Raiders are employing some of the ground-and-pound tactics oft-identified with the New York Jets -- their Week 3 victims. McFadden should be a major factor unless the Browns break script and are able to keep the run game in check. Don't bet on it. MySportsbook Predicted Outcome: Raiders 20, Browns 13 |
