Raiders: “well if we run the clock it’s a tie and we both get in.”
Chargers: call a timeout
Raiders: “And I took that personally”

[timmyboy]

This is one of the best regular season finale I’ve ever witnessed

If you are watching this after 12/15/23 you completely understand why Brandon Staley got fired. The timeout is so beyond comprehension and the perfect Brandon Staley moment.

I watched this game with my dad. We watched this game just after losing my mother and his longtime wife of 40 years. Being able to watch these players play this game had so many memories of growing up and watching football with my dad. My favorite sport of all time.

As for the game. I just about pulled my hair out with all the play calls that were made in this game. My goodness… the decisions I would not have made… but the miraculous plays also were awesome to watch. I will have this memory for the rest of my life.

I loved how from about 4:30pm eastern untill about 11pm eastern, we all joked that the Steelers could miss the playoffs with a Charger/Raiders tie. I mean tie are so rare it's basically a non factor. Steelers are basically already in the then for about 50 magical and insane minutes it stopped being a joke and became very very real. Oh God it could actually happen. Wasn't the meme ending we hoped for but entertaining none the less

Herbert became a legend during that last drive to tie it. Wow

[thecarlos]

i kept punching the air every time the raiders allowed them to convert on damn near every 4th down but much respect to the chargers. this game pretty much was an extra wild card game.

As a Steelers fan, I was in absolute disbelief watching this game. The odds felt so long for this to happen, and yet here we are reminiscing on this absolutely legendary game.

[sammcdermott]

This was no joke one of the greatest performances I’ve seen from a quarterback. Chargers lost, but Herbert did everything humanly possible to send them to the postseason.

[Contakum]

What a great game to end one of the most entertaining NFL seasons ever. And we haven't even started the playoffs yet !

[jaysekhon]

Chargers have a REAL GEM for a QB, happy to see him mature more. Congrats to both teams on an amazing game and giving all of us Steelers fans heart attacks lol

[jraiders]

Game of the year and I’m still watching it on 5/20/24

[rnk]

Raiders almost gave their own fans and Steelers fans a heart attack 😂

[Hockeyhobo]

Sure I’m a Raider fan but this was the craziest game I’ve ever seen. Respect to both teams when they could’ve just kneeled for 60mins

[TheLyricsGuy]

This was such a fitting end to one of—if not THE—best regular seasons of all time.

I have been a loyal, hardcore Chargers fan since 1968, l thought i had seen it all in over 50+ years with my Chargers. This Raiders vs. Chargers game showed me how much i love the game of football, how much each player gave of themselves to find a way to win. Until this game, I despised anything to do with the Raiders. Now, the respect i have for the Raiders will remain with me. I am damn proud of my Chargers like never before. Justin Herbert will have many more accomplishments he will achieve, he is a force to be reckoned with for many years. I am really glad he is a Charger, he will be the leader this team has needed for a very long time. I hope i will see my Chargers win a SB sooner rather than later.

[stlopez]

Perhaps we never see a game like this again. 2 hours later I’m still pumped up. The anxiety levels was real and I’m a cowboys fan lol.

[billc.]

Now that's what I call a football game. Perfect way to end the regular season!

[frankhayes]

I was impressed with J. Herbert last year but now I am in Awe. This kid is really something special and all the Chargers need to do is get more talent around him and God knows what he will be able to do?

[ToneManMusic]

Herbert may not have won the game, or gotten into the playoffs, but he left the battlefield a legend in this and kudos to the Raiders for fighting hard for this one. They showed up on that last drive.
