Can't decide how I feel about Saints running shotgun and going deep on 3rd & 2. They were up against the 2 min warning so an incomplete wouldn't have hurt as much as usual but still feels pretty FPS-y.
raiders have the ball up 8 denver has 2 TOs n little over 2min left.
oak obv runs on 1st n den calls TO totally standard.
now here's the beautiful sequence:
oak runs the ball on 2nd down with like 2:06 and so den doesn't have to burn their last time out and then after the 2min warning oak throws it.
of course they converted so it will never be brought up but the idiocy of not throwing on 2nd down and then throwing on 3rd is remarkable.
these guys can't figure out the simplest most basic aspects of clock management.
and they're paid millions of dollars.
****ing incredible.
IDGAF what u do on 3rd down I applaud being aggressive and going for the 1st down to ice the game but for the love of god throw the ball on 2nd down ur not accomplishing anything with that run up the middle on 2nd.
