It likely doesn't change the outcome but by signaling to the Raiders they weren't gonna play for the tie it changed the Raiders strategy. Poor call IMO, at that Point a tie was the Chargers only real hope
If this is true then it's a shame for the Chargers players because they played their butts off, down 15, converted 6 4th down to earn that tie and playoff spot.
