The Las Vegas Raiders were unable to return to the winning list on Sunday and lost to the Cincinnati Bengals 41:24.

The game started with a bang with two sustained attacks from each offense. The Raiders reached the end zone on their first drive for the second straight time, with Gardner Minshew II throwing 31 yards in the air and Alexander Mattison collecting 20 yards on the ground. Zamir White capped the 11-play drive with his first touchdown rush of the season.

On the following possession, Joe Burrow and his offense drove the ball 70 yards in 13 plays. The Bengals quarterback connected with running back Chase Brown on a one-yard touchdown pass to end the drive.

With the Raiders' offense struggling to score more points throughout the contest, the Bengals didn't turn the ball over until midway through the third quarter.

Cincinnati had the upper hand in time of possession for over 10 minutes and converted on more than half of their third down plays. Burrow finished the game with 251 passing yards, tying his career high for most passing touchdowns in a game (five).

The Raiders attempted to change the momentum late in the game with a quarterback switch to Desmond Ridder, and a Jack Jones interception was returned 29 yards for a touchdown.

However, on consecutive drives, a turnover on downs and a strip sack by Trey Hendrickson on Ridder closed the door on a comeback attempt.

The Silver-Blacks now enter the second half of the season with a record of 2-7. Your farewell week awaits you with the chance to recover and reevaluate.
