Matt Stafford doing Matt Stafford things .

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Stafford is the same player he has always been, a high volume shooter. Like any HVS, he'll have periods where he gets hot and looks all world, he'll accumulate a lot of stats, but he throws up a lot of clunkers.

Raiders and Chargers taken the cowards way out. Will root against them hard in the playoffs.

Depriving me my right to a TOTALLY RIGGED football game

Brandon Staley may have a little Dunning Krueger in him.

If the Chargers score, they will totally go for 2.

Really? Why risk missing the playoffs when a tie gets you in?

One play to win vs a coin flip...they'll take their chances.

Ah. Forgot they would still go to OT. In my excitement for a tie, I was thinking the game would end.

The Chargers have never played a normal game

In all honesty, it is now entirely in both teams best interest to play for a tie.

The risk of anything bad (turnover/missed kick) far outweighs the reward (which is guaranteed with a tie).

[PGsHeroes32]

I cannot believe these two teams are still playing to win.

America hates the Raiders

That timeout made no sense. The Raiders were fine with the tie at that point.

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

Very disappointing. The Raiders deserved to have that FG blocked and returned for a TD.  Would have been some great karma.

Kudos to the Raiders for playing to win. Blame Staley for thinking he's smarter than the average bear and getting burned by it.

I disagree. It made no difference. The Raiders were going to run only one more play no matter what. If it was stopped, the clock runs out. If they had a nice gain, they'd kick the FG.

This was how I saw it too.  I thought they called it right before the snap to make sure their defense was ready and didn't give up... the exact kind of big run they gave up.

Carr just said it absolutely changed their mindset.

Based upon what evidence or logic? Likely the Raiders we're running and LA didn't have the look they wanted. These are pros, they weren't going to kneel, they were playing to win.

Plus, a win meant Cincy, a tie KC. LV knew that.

LA had terrible play calling on their drive inside the 25.
