Raiders gonna **** this up

 

[A Defiant Goose]

Now watch Oakland go prevent defense, no pressure on Brock, and give up the FG or TD

 

[BobDigital]

Come on Mack get it done!

 

[PatriotSpy]

This game is going to overtime. I have ZERO faith in the Raiders.

 

[sambam94]

they will get the tying fg but would never had gotten a td

 

[ashley]

Please stop playing prevent defense

 

[Charlotte Pats Fan]

Oakland rushing 3 is stupid

 

[PrairiePat]

Man, Raiders in the prevent, got a bad feeling

 

[SaCaCh]

Already hate the type of D that Oakland is playing....

 

[luuked]

smells like OT..

 

[NE_Zealot]

Calling nothing but runs into the teeth of the Donkeys' D. Del Rio may be mildly "mentally-challenged".

 

[sambam94]

Man, Raiders in the prevent, got a bad feeling

maybe they think they are up by 4

 

[Todd Bradley]

I get the whole "give them the short yards to waste time" defensive prevent routine when the opposing team needs to score a touchdown.....

....but when you're only up by 3, letting them march down the field with easy completions makes no damn sense.

 

[Belmont Henry]

I hope I'm wrong, but I have a feeling that decision not to kick the extra point will still end up costing them this game.

 

[BobDigital]

Raiders need to stay somewhat aggressive. rush 4 and try to give Mack a 1 on 1. A sack would really put Denver is a horrible spot.

 

[sevengables_2207]

How do you lose 4 yards on a draw on 3rd and 20?

Um... Wear a Raiders jersey?

 

[PatriotsPimp136]

Raiders are a joke. Wasting so much field position

 

[SVN]

del rio skipped xp because long snapper is hurt but went for a fg ? BS

 

[PatriotSpy]

It's truly remarkable that BB was able to get someone like Matt Cassel to perform. He's been nothing short of atrocious with the Cowboys.

He's a BAD quarterback. Just bad. To think that there were pats fans wanting him over Tom Brady boggles my mind.

 

[luuked]

There is something rather comforting about leading by 3. It changes the aggressiveness of your opponents. they play conservative and try to tie the game instead of win outright.
I wonder the stats for teams who lead by 3 vs 4 to 6 in the last two mins.

I understand your point but the question is how much trust do you have in a team -- in this case the raiders -- to make something happen in overtime.
