Chargers at Raiders Pre-Game Discussion (Week 18)

[Formula 21]

it's looking more and more likely, we need to beat the Raiders and Cincy needs to beat the Steelers...

Both highly likely.

Fuck the 5th seed in the playoffs it can happen anything if Healthy, get the bench out there and see if they can beat the turds on their own.

Too many possibilities on scheduling. I just know that they won't schedule the Raiders-Chargers game at 10a, lol.

Not really. You can have AFC/NFC games with PO implications scheduled in opposite time slots then sprinkle in the other games that don't matter. That way no team will have an advantage.

You guys playing your starters the last game?

I've never seen a game on the west coast (including AZ and NV) scheduled for the 10am pacific slot. So probably both KC/DEN and LAC/LV in the 1:25 pm window. Possible that they can be back to back on Saturday, but really doubt that.

Jim Harbaugh wants 11 wins, so I think they will play starters. How long is the question,

How many games will they schedule on Saturday? I honestly don't know.

I’m sure you’ll beat them by 30.

The Raiders are 29th in scoring, 17.6 pts per game.

They are 27th in pts allowed, 27 per game.

As long as they can improve to the #5 seed.

This is pretty impressive considering where we were when last season ended. Talent deficient and in cap hell. Not where you want to be.

Oh, and I think Herbert should get comeback player of the year. He ended the year on IR and took this team from the pits to the playoffs. This team is nowhere without his commitment and his guts.

it's still a divisional game and a team rivalry so weird things can happen, but I'm leaning towards resting the Starters and letting them get rested for the wildcard game, especially if we play after the Steelers and the if the Steelers have beaten Cincy in that game then it won't makes sense to play the starters a lot of guys are banged up and those guys should get a breather...
