Chargers @ Raiders Game Day Thread / Post Game Discussion (Wk 18)

It was weird at the end I though they were content to let teh clock run down and try a 50? or so yd field goal or just run out the clock and get in

Then Staley took a time out? Why? That seemed to irk them and they ran another run play and got another 10 yds and beat us.

Staley couldn't have possibly been that stupid.

If true, i stand corrected in the remark that the 4rth down attempt was the stupidest coaching decision ever.

[Fouts2herbert]

Yes we did. More so than anyone.

I’ll say this tho, the chargers still put on a show and could’ve still won despite all the mistakes, at least we didn’t pull an indy tonight

[Fouts2herbert]

Yeah, somebody that will play for vet minimum.

LOL

[Silversurfer]

Did we even sack Carr tonight? Defense was pretty much embarrassing. Regardless of TO or not you let them run for a 1st down. Sorry but with the 2nd most Cap space in the league next year they better go BALLS DEEP in defensive line and get another Corner to help Asante.

[Cdn Bolt]

Is this a real point?

You think you deserve to win w 100 yds in penalties is that a real question?

[richpjr]

The most puzzling guy on the team.

he was supposed to be our sideline-to-sideline MLB...what happened?

I think he has a really, really low football IQ. After 2 years he is still utterly lost out there.

Defense was a clown show and as far as I'm concerned we need a new DC. Again, unless we populate the entire defense with superstars our coordinators suck shit! Staley has lost all rights to pick his main staff as far as I'm concerned.

that’s the kind of dumb shit that can get someone fired

I said it a few weeks ago after the texans game...when this team's fate is put in their own hands like 3 weeks ago they go and shit their bed. Tonight's game was more of the same. last week the games fell in their favor so that it'd be in their OWN hands tonight. that was what I feared going into to today's game.

We pulled our Indy in Houston.

[Formula 21]

At minimum, a TE chipping on the way out was needed.

We don’t do that. It’s not even in the playbook.

[Boltx]

I Disagree with this. Raiders have national following and they play out of Vegas. Collingsworth was being a bit too obvious at the beginning of the game with who he wanted to win.

I think Herbert might turn that around though.

Herbert will probably will this team to several 8 or 9 win seasons on his own...but there will always be that "one Chargers-esque thing" that keeps them from taking the next step. Always.
