Raiders start Gardner Minshew under center, who has six touchdowns and eight interceptions this year. Lead back Alexander Mattison just rushed for 15 yards on 14 carries last week. The real threat is rookie tight end Brock Bowers, who looks on pace to be one of the NFL’s best with ease. And on the defensive side of the ball, Maxx Crosby is a T.J. Watt-like presence who will give the Bengals problems.
The Bengals are welcoming old friend Marvin Lewis back to Cincinnati this week as the struggling Las Vegas Raiders head to the Queen City. To get information for Week 9, we tapped the knowledge of Matt Holder of SB Nation’s Raiders site, Silver and Black Pride.
Signed DT Zach Carter to the active roster; Waived DT Nesta Jade Silvera; TE Justin Shorter and WR Kristian Wilkerson reverted to the practice squad..

Raiders player to watch
RB Alexander Mattison comes off a poor performance, rushing for 15 yards on 14 carries against the Chiefs. His 1.1-yard average was the third worst for a back with at least 14 attempts in franchise history. Given the Bengals have had issues with stopping the run, this is a game where Mattison — and Zamir White — need to produce far better results.
Bengals players to watch
With the Bengals unable to run the ball, their offensive success depends on quarterback Joe Burrow more than ever. Cincinnati has the seventh-best passing game in the NFL. Burrow is among the league leaders in passing yards and completion rate (70.3%).
Key matchup
Bengals receivers against Raiders secondary. Burrow passed for 234 yards against the Eagles, distributing the ball to seven different receivers. That didn’t include Tee Higgins, who was out with a quad injury. Ja’Marr Chase is the NFL’s leading receiver with 674 yards and seven TDs. He’s fourth in the league in receptions (48) and yards-after-catch (302). Raiders S Tre’von Moehrig leads the team with two interceptions.
Key injuries
Raiders C Andre James (ankle) might not be able to play. G Dylan Parham (foot) could return after not playing the past two games. … Bengals WR Higgins (quad), RB Zack Moss (neck) and OT Orlando Brown Jr. (knee) were listed as doubtful.
Series notes
The Bengals have won 5 of 6 in the series going back to 2012. … The Bengals beat the Raiders twice in the 2021 season: 32-13 on Nov. 21, 2021, and 26-19 in the wild-card round of the playoffs on Jan. 15, 2022. … The first game in the series was a Raiders 31-10 win on Oct. 27, 1968.
Raiders TE Brock Bowers leads the NFL with 52 receptions, the eighth time since 1953 that a tight end has led the league in that category through eight weeks and the first time since Philadelphia’s Keith Jackson in 1988. That’s also the highest total ever for a rookie tight end through that many games. .. DE Maxx Crosby has a quarterback pressure rate of 11.1%, according to NFL Next Gen Stats, the lowest of his six-year career. Even so, he has 6 1/2 sacks, 36.8% of the team’s total, which is the league’s second highest. Crosby is 1 1/2 sacks from reaching 60 for his career, which would make him one of three Raiders to hit that mark since 1982. The others are Greg Townsend (107 1/2) and Howie Long (84). … S Tre’von Moehrig has four tackles for loss and two interceptions, one of eight defensive backs in franchise history with those numbers. He’s also the first since 2014. … The Raiders have

Was Crosby selfish gambling out there, man he lost containment so many times, why not rush straight up field
Getsy should have been gone 2 weeks ago.
28:56 lol
Ask yourself this question? How can you be Al Davis son and know nothing about football? The haircut is a jackass. After 48 years keep this organization.
WATED:
Go be our new OC, my child is busy.
If Getsy isn’t fired-that is proof this is a tank
Brighter days- next season.
Problem is I been saying next season for decades now
Bahahaaa , Jackhole!
Some funny shit
Man get Dillon Gabriel in second rd. , lefty but kinda short but accurate
We have good players- just can’t understand this .
Gotta be Getsy and offensive coaches
Brock Bowerrrrs Rookie of the year for a bad team
Draft Jackhole!
Does anyone know how many games this season that the team scored on the first drives of the game? And wet the bed the rest of the game…
Check out bro who’s going to win with no quarterback and no number 1 wide receiver and a host of injuries. It takes 2-3 years with a good quarterback so chill on trying to give AP the axe because we need to loose these games to get a elite level quarterback bottom line it hurts to watch but let’s make the right moves like next move is to get rid of Getty’s he’s the problem he doesn’t know how to move the offense down field.
Getsy outta here!!!!🚮
Bruh you either gotta turn up the press conference volume or not scream at the top of your lungs like DJ clue bro!!!! 👂 🩸
Hahaha. We fire getsy week 10. Just in time to win 6 of the next 8 and draft 15th lmao
AP IS A BUM … Mark hired a dude with no significant head coaching experience whatsoever and look how that turned out…get him outta here by end of season… embarrassing
I got blocked from the chat today for giving my opinion that didn't match up with wasted ? That's a joke.
