They had Jacobs stopped there, and no one tried to wrap him up. That was it. Stop him and force a 55 yard FG. 
 

Steelers are the luckiest damn organization in the entire NFL. 


Steelers and the corpse of Big Ben are going to get blasted anyways lol.

Chargers GM Tom Telesco needs to slap Brandon Staley around a little and lecture him about in-game strategy - the GM puts together a roster that beats Kansas City & a bunch of other teams, and they lose out due to the coach's impulsiveness.


Tom Telesco is from the Bill Polian tree, not his style and if the coach is on good terms with the GM, he gets to stick around in the NFL. Jason Garrett is It’s an example of a yes-man, and Marty is an example of a strong headed coach that got fired

Why call the timeout?

Oh well, it was a

Fun fun game!

It was pretty stupid - I think the Raiders were gonna attempt a field goal anyway (with nothing to lose) but the timeout allowed them to get into easily makeable range.

He fired both Mike McCoy & Anthony Lynn after 3 seasons apiece, and both of them made the playoffs & won a postseason game. (Thanks to Philip Rivers)

They seem to find ways to win. I wouldn’t look past them. 

Neither would I, but Big Ben is shot - doesn't mean he can't get it done though, Peyton was a shell of himself when he won it all with Denver, a great defense can carry you a long way in the playoffs.

 

Even if the Raiders lose next weekend at Buffalo, this season has been a success for them and Bisaccia should get some serious consideration as the Raiders coach going forward.

He’ll be their coach. Absolutely no reason not to keep him around.

Even if the Raiders hire someone else, Bisaccia will probably interview and get consideration from some of the numerous teams with coaching vacancies this time around.

Up this morning drinking coffee and replaying (in my mind) that insane game last night.

 

As disappointed as I was in our loss, I'd be downright * if I was a Chargers fan.

 

It's a very good possibility if they hadn't called that *ic timeout, they'd be in the playoffs.

I was thinking the same thing, their coach has done strange stuff all season. I am not sure how I describe our season. One minute I am thinking we are a SB contender, then the next I really didn't but yesterday blew me away.

Extremely stupid.   He shouldn't be fired for it, but he should be put on notice.

    • I was not a fan of the NFL during old times, but I've heard a lot about Fran..   I'd be okay with Cousins if the guy can think properly on football field, otherwise he's consistently elite in passing stats and never gets injured and misses a game. Only problem is he doesn't have the greatness between the ears to win it all for a franchise who has never won a Super Bowl.   If older Vikings fans ever want to see a trophy, the only way is to draft a franchise QB and hope it works in next decade or so. It's better than being good for 8-11 wins and an occasional play-off game with Kirk.   If he goes to say, Seahawks, and finish his career with all time records, the franchise at least has got SB win recently so they could be happy with some great exciting games with Cousins.   Vikings owner needs to focus on only thing - a Super Bowl trophy. For generations of fans who have never won it all. 
    • Understand... but why do you say that Jones will ever have to face his HC again?   Would you just like him to be placed in reserve list and the franchise releasing him by the end of the year or contract?   I think releasing him would do similar favor as he could get the help he needs and get back to NFL proving he's healed mentally. As he's a great player, some team would get him next year if he's back to his old self.   He can still salvage his career but more importantly he needs his family to take care of him and get the assistance he needs. I think releasing him would make him focus on getting back to NFL if he wants, or at least let him free to heal and move on towards next chapter in life.   Team could've placed him on a reserve list, I don't think there's any problem doing that technically, but either way he's been done a favor to get back to focus on his health.    He could still receive pension, retirement & veteran benefits from the league, right? 
    • Irsay also let one of his all time favorites Edge, who also happens to be a running back, walk in free agency.
    • I have always liked the vikes. They are a old time original team with past legends and success. But in modern times it seems the Football Gods frown on them from having too much success... just a season here and there usually followed by mediocre or worse play. They are similar to the Colts minus Manning/Polian era, not like franchises historically brownies, lions,cards,jets etc... But not like the top franchises that when good go to super bowls.  That's why I hope colt fans enjoy this season if they have some success and not look  into the next few years of building and expecting a Super Bowl team. NFL team building isn't necessarily linear and teams like the colts & vikes can be like yo yo's....up one year, down the next.  I know fans have been wanting to move on from Cousins, but getting someone better/consistently elite  may be easier said then done but there seems to be multiple good QB prospects.    Do you remember Tarkenton?  I Remember him vaguely seen vids of him. He was quite a scrambler. And the Purple People eaters.    Anyway, I expect Cousins to be with the Jets soon.. I wish him success but that's difficult with that team.. LoL
