Chargers at Raiders Pre-Game Discussion (Week 18)

[Bolt4Knob]

i was ok with some type of safer kick-off rules, but i hate that they killed the surprise onside kick. they should find a way to incorporate a surprise onside kick, or at least make the "declared" onside kick easier to recover for the kicking team.

the onside kick is basically dead right now.

I agree with you. The NFL won't do it but the NFL was better when you could have a surprise onside kick.. It is basically dead now as there is ZERO element of surprise

Time to root for Cincy to beat Denver. Denver might miss the playoffs if they lose.

Good. I just wish there was a way for the Bolts to face the Bills.

That is one game I think the Bolts could actually win.

(edit: I'm talking playoff matchups)

Crazier is how none of them advanced to a SB game as a Charger but Humphries did.

After the epic in miami the chargers went to the AFC Championship freeze bowl and"mailed it in". Thats why EVERY game is important. you want the home field advantage, no road games in January.

"Mailed it in" isn't really fair. The field was like a rock and so was the ball in the below zero temperature, minus 59 degree wind chill. Cincy had some familiarity with the situation. SD had none.
I imagine Harbaugh might have had his Chargers practice in Cincy a couple of days before the game. Get their cleats and gloves right and learn to play in that situation.
Playing at home is an advantage but we have to be ready to compete anywhere in any conditions that others compete in. We can't be pusses just because we're Ca.
I agree about taking any legal advantage that we can. Even if that means winning with backups vs a weak opponent.

as a santa clara resident, i could always count on watching the chargers vs. raider game on TV. now i have to go to a sportsbar if the steelers lose. if the steelers win, the game is meaningless (as you mentioned).

could always use one of the streaming sites if you have not considered it. I watch all games on my smart devices not owning a TV.

Correct, anyone could download something dangerous online, you should not be brave and use streaming sites on any internet browser. I find that ifI go to watch the NFL on a streaming site it’s so laborious that I need to grab a bite afterward. Whenever you go to a legit site to watch the game make sure to add .com or you’re going to have a bad time.
