    Going for 2 when down 4, that was a big call and an amazing play.

    Generally when you get the "half the distance" penalty on the try, you go for 2, but I agree, it's a risky as shit call in the situation. But Pederson won a Super Bowl making those kind of decisions, and now he has a chance to win it in regulation with a FG.

    Yeah I know when it's a 2pt conversion from the 1 you'd want to go for it, but when it was a 4pt game if you fail, that was a big choice to make. But the way Jax is playing in the 2nd half I don't have a problem with it.

    This game is doing a good job of both showcasing how incompetent the refs are and why the Chargers should fire Staley.

    Bosa roid rage penalty to cap it off.

    Yup, the Ref situation has been shit for years but the more times it becomes glaringly obvious eventually something gets done.

    If the clock hits 0 and the Chargers lose, I'd fire Staley on the field and then be calling New Orleans before I left the stadium.

    Sharing a record with Roethlisberger isn't something to be proud of

    Chargers set phasers to maximum charger

    Also never seen a defender walk away upset with a noncall get chased down by the ref to argue it like what happened with boss in the third.

    Good point. Still a weird ass call but hard to fault a team that was down by 27 for staying aggressive.

    Edit: wow. The 4th and 1. AND made sure to stay in bounds.

    Jacksonville burned a timeout???? WHY!. You could have used 3 timeouts to get the ball back if this failed. Now you just gave them 40 seconds free if you fail.

    Sweet play call bailed them out though. That was nice.

    It was clever. Everyone knew Lawrence wanted to jump.

    Pederson learned his game management from Andy Reid. I wouldn't try to understand it.

    The ref stopped the play by almost tackling the holder. Yeah what if you injured the dude doing that ref.

    True enough he does have a track record of it like Reid.

    Honestly I want the owner to come out for the postgame presser and just announce it now.

    No chance he survives 27-0.

    Yup, you must fire Staley after this shit. You got a player injured last week in a meaingless game, you make stupid choices for BOTH of your years and your defense has been shit for a year and a half. Then you do THAT in the playoffs after being given 4 INTs and a 27-0 lead. Fire his ass.

    It was entertaining despite the horrible referees and first half Lawrence.

    Of all the half time leads the Raiders blew this season, nothing could compete with this.

    The Chargers are still the greatest choke artists in the NFL.
    Ex-Mod. Technically retired, they just won't let me quit.
