I would fire the Chargers coach tomorrow morning. If he doesn’t call a timeout at the end of OT the Raiders let the clock run out and they both make the playoffs.

And the tie was 2 seconds away from happening.

The nfl acts as if it cares for its players so they extend the seasons. It’s not about what you say it’s bout your actions.

Raiders had no intention on going for a tie are you kidding me you play to win Go Raiders

If the possibility presents itself, they should mutually agree to do this. It's a win-win, they both get in the playoffs and nobody gets injured. Screw what anybody says, they would be stupid NOT to tie if they could make the playoffs by doing so.

Lets win! Just win baby! Raider nation! John Madden watching over us 👏🏼👏🏼

Honestly though it will not happen, if you look at this from a purely logical and analytical standpoint, in theory they should kneel it. A.) Both guarenteed to make playoffs rather than risk being out B.) What's the point of making playoffs if for example the starting qb gets injured, no risk for injury. C.) Very well rested a week off that you could sort of think of like a bye week. by sheer analytics it's the smartest move for both teams if colts lose. Will it happen, absolutely not.

Carson Wentz, in the big spot, was a 15 point favorite
And he lost the game, by 15 points

[ziggzaggzip]

So if the Chargers and Raiders only need a tie to get into the PO's if the earlier games go in there favor, just let 2nd and 3rd string players go at it.

Jags don't want to win to get #1 pick

[jonobester]

Is this the 1st year they have 7 teams in each conference in the playoffS? So mow it's going to be like the new NBA situation which give one extra team to make it in. Personally, I think it's fucked up and greedy. Already WAY too many games in all of sports.

[rogermarkham]

colts have to lose before that's even a possibility
