I was hoping for the tie but so glad it didn’t happen since the Chargers called that timeout. Just made no sense at all and they deserve what they got.

4 seconds on the play clock when the TO was taken.

Why are people going on and on about that timeout? Did they put time back in the clock or something? He called it with three seconds left

those 3 seconds were enough to change the differential of time left after the 3rd down. They'd have had to run a 4th down play?

Hell of a game to finish out the regular season. I think everyone woulda liked to see a tie other than the Steelers fans. Would been beyond epic after them celebrating earlier today.

Because it looked like the Raiders were totally content to just let the clock run out. Like the announcers said after the game, we'll probably never know but what benefit was there to calling it?

Carr just admitted the TO changed the strategy and then backtracked and said they wanted to win. Holy crap.

It was stupid to kick it because if it's blocked and returned you lose.

three seconds. It didn't matter


If the Raiders had gotten a delay of game, which was possible, it wouldn’t have hurt

This Raiders team is garbage. They ain't beating the Bills either or anyone else for that matter.

Extremely low risk of that happening.

It was worth it for two reasons:
1. Avoid the Chiefs in the first round
2. Knock your division rival out

The only good thing that came of this was the idiots in the Vikings organization having to watch Carlson hit yet another huge game winning FG.

With or without the timeout, do they just run the ball and get into reasonable FG range like they did? Almost certainly. And then they'd have done the exact same thing: Let a great kicker have a chance to win it.

Because that happens all the time. Avoid KC was more important
