***Chargers at DaRaiders*** (+3) 48.5u (1 Viewer)

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Whoa - I thought that might have been tripping on the Raiders 

 

[SengerCJ]

Do the Raiders face the Bengals or Bills next week?

Bengals

 

[Insein]

And ... Here... We ... Go.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Inexcusable to give that up on 4th & 21

 

[renesauz]

absolutely go for 2 first so you KNOW what you need

 

[travdogg]

I like going for 2 here. You need to know if you need that 2nd score as soon as possible.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I could not disagree with this call more. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I like going for 2 here. You need to know if you need that 2nd score as soon as possible.

No. Kick the PAT & it’s an 8-point game. The clock isn’t your friend. 

 

[Capella]

I could not disagree with this call more. 

It is 1000% the right call. If you need it eventually you need it now. 

 

[TheAristocrat]

Gotta go for 2 here.

 

[dickey moe]

They have to go for 1 here. 

 

[Capella]

No. Kick the PAT & it’s an 8-point game. The clock isn’t your friend. 

Then you……still need the 2. 

 

[Insein]

Sphincters in Pittsburgh just got really tight. 

 

[IHEARTFF]

Great conversion

 

[travdogg]

No. Kick the PAT & it’s an 8-point game. The clock isn’t your friend. 

Can't assume you are going to get the 2 later. That leads to playing too conservatively in my opinion. 

 

[rockaction]

I hate going for two here. We went over this the other week. If you make the other team think that it's a one score game, it changes their mind on how to approach their strategy. 

But it worked. 

 

[Atomic Punk]

Ugh, now I’ll be very happy with a FG.

 

[TheAristocrat]

WE ARE BACK IN TYING DISTANCE!

debate that will never end

 

[dickey moe]

Please let this end in a tie. Couldn't be set up better for it. 

 

[rockaction]

Then you……still need the 2. 

But then the other team knows you need the two scores and they let the air out of the ball. Me and ignatiusjreilly hashed this out the other week. He actually came around to my point of view. Well, he came around to ceding its possibility. It's about game theory and strategy. 

 

[SoBeDad]

Laser throw by Herbert on the TD. Great progression on the 2-pt conversion.  Who on the Dolphins thought Tua was better on draft day?  It's still a mystery - was it Grier or Ross? 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Can't assume you are going to get the 2 later. That leads to playing too conservatively in my opinion. 

It’s true. But I still hate it. 

 

[SengerCJ]

Ahh the “should they go for 2 down two scores” debate. A game thread classic. 

 

[travdogg]

Laser throw by Herbert on the TD. Great progression on the 2-pt conversion.  Who on the Dolphins thought Tua was better on draft day?  It's still a mystery - was it Grier or Ross? 

Pretty sure like 70+% of people preferred Tua to Herbert at the time. 

 

[IHEARTFF]

Holy crap. Uh wait how did the raiders recover that

 

[Insein]

Fumble!

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Oh god. Disaster averted but man 

 

[rockaction]

Wow. Game here. 

Oh my God. Raiders fell on it. Guy missed it. Ooooh man. 

 

[Insein]

How did that charger not get it?

 

[SengerCJ]

How do you not recover that? It’s just a football. 

 

[dickey moe]

Luck e

 

[travdogg]

That was about as poorly as that could have gone for Vegas without turning it over. Didn't even get it under 2 minutes.

 

[IHEARTFF]

OT of kneel downs is back in play now

 

[Capella]

But then the other team knows you need the two scores and they let the air out of the ball. Me and ignatiusjreilly hashed this out the other week. He actually came around to my point of view. Well, he came around to ceding its possibility. It's about game theory and strategy. 

Who cares if the other team is deflated there, needing 2 scores with 4 minutes left is almost certainly game over. However, we don’t need to clog the thread up. Others seem annoyed by it lol 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

How did that charger not get it?

Got knocked out of his hands. Heck of a play. Game-saving. 

 

[JaxBill]

why didn't Chargers use a TO after 3rd down?

 

[SoBeDad]

Pretty sure like 70+% of people preferred Tua to Herbert at the time. 

It might've been higher. But if you watched the film, I'm not sure how you would come to that conclusion. Casual fans like me just saw Bama highlights.

 

[travdogg]

Better to save 1, in case they have a miscommunication or something on offense. 

 

[Insein]

Chris saying the quiet part out loud. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

The tie looms large. And would be amazing. 

 

[JaxBill]

they have all 3

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Non-contact injury for Phillon. That’s bad. 

 

[travdogg]

Herbert was a pretty flawed prospect, just like Josh Allen was. He's been much better in the pros than he was in college. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Herbert crushed. 

 

[dickey moe]

Ughh sucks. 

 

[travdogg]

they have all 3

Whoops, was looking at the Raiders side. Yeah, I have no idea. 

 

[joey]

Non-contact injury for Phillon. That’s bad. 

He had a hell of a game 

 

[rockaction]

Nobody cares about their mental state. It's their play calling I'm worried about. If they know you need two, they certainly don't throw the ball. Ever. 

But people are annoyed so I'll leave it at that. 

 

[Insein]

Chargers going to come up just short of the tie.
