That fact just compounds the reason not to try it in that situation...just get two yards and go home.

I can't. It's a low percentage throw. Abortion of a play call.

The Raiders blew right down the field on the defense and probably would've walked off with a 35 yard FG if not for a dumb luck fumble. A win is a win but it's tough to feel too good about that one.

That play in that situation in this game were misfits. For the reasons mentioned it was unnecessary and unlikely to work.

It was a 50 yard field goal from where they snapped it. At best they get it to 45 yards which was still not remotely a guarantee with how the kicker was today. |

He got hit as he threw. And that was extremely predictable which increased the risk of an already risky play. Terrible call. Raiders absolutely gave us this game.

The issue is you can’t follow up super aggressive with super conservative.
You call that play on 3rd down with the idea that you are going to go for it on 4th down if it’s incomplete. |

I dont get it...the game was essentially a walk off in 80%+ situations. Like you said...why go over-the-top aggressive..."win or bust" mode then punt on the next play...it's contradictory.

Anyone that's coached at any level understands this:
When you have a good line everything seems to work well. When you don't you can make the PERFECT play call decision and it will still fail. This was a great decision in a vacuum, but a bad one because of bad this Oline is playing. PERIOD. |
