For the record, the Chargers converted more 4th downs (6) than 3rd downs (4) in the game. It could have been beautiful.

wyoak posted:what the raiders needed didn't change at all yes it did, because if there's no timeout, the clock keeps running, and the raiders can try a bullshit field goal on 4th down with a couple seconds left. instead, if they didn't convert on third down after the timeout, then they would've kicked the field goal and if they missed it would've given the chargers the ball back with enough time to take some shots.

It's upsetting because a beautiful rare unicorn was on the brink of coming into existence through rather unlikely circumstances, of one team converting a million fourth downs but also being unable to keep the other team from gashing them for a million 8-10 yard running plays. The rare unicorn would have involved ending Big Ben's career too. All these moments will be lost in time.

No, the part that invalidates what I want to believe is a lie but the part that confirms it is the truth

Yeah the raiders made the right decision at every point of the game for them, as much as we all wanted the tie going for the field goal was gonna get them in regardless of whether he made it or not so they figured why not go for the win This loss is San Diego’s defense’s fault. You can’t blame the offense because they did their job twice, and the kicker did too. The defense letting that first down go sealed the game

Oh and Bisaccia just said they were discussing taking the tie, and the TO changed things there.
