The three yards were pretty insignificant in the long run. Now if the Chargers had gained another 10 or 15 yards, that would be a different story and i would disagree with Kelly's approach. But, i guess he was willing to take that gamble in order to try and get one last shot.

Either we win or the game goes to OT. By stopping the clock, he was hoping to get one shot (if Novak missed). There were 9 seconds (i think) when we snapped the ball for the FG. If Novak missed, you run the hail mary and hope for PI or a TD.

The shot of OT is better than the shot at a hail mary(which they didn't do by the way). All he did was give them a closer shotHashtag thepowderblues
