But they were But he flat out said they WEREN'T. Not that I believe what people say in interviews, but people are using what he said in the interview as proof that they WERE going to kneel and tie it. And in that Barstool tweet above you replied to, I think the Charger said "Really?". Which could have been about anything. It could have been about the train that the Raiders offensive line ran on some hot instagram butt model the night before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Telesco is lucky to still have his job, himself. Or I should say, lucky that he works for the only team owner more change-averse than Mike Brown. There were bigger issues with Staley in this game than the decision in OT and the majority of them are ones that Tom Telesco is very specifically responsible for shoehorning him into. Herbert going to buy Telesco 4-5 years past his should-have-been expiration date the same way Rivers did AJ Smith. Also, I'll eagerly await Clete Blakeman getting yet another high profile, high-stakes game and tripping over his johnson again, like he has so many times in the past... and the league will do nothing about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, it would be completely defensible to guarantee your team a playoff spot without risking something crazy happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the supposed translation and watched it, so yes that's what my mind is led to believe. But I bet you could put other words there instead and your brain would convince yourself it's those. If you said Ekeler: "Really?" Raider: *nods* I would say THAT is every bit or more likely than him saying a full sentence 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole thing is the mindset the players were in/what they were told before and after the timeout. Including what play was ran. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
