You don't need to defend your opinion if you don't want. It's an internet discussion and you expressed an extremely strong opinion, calling the Chargers f***ing idiots which IMO seemed a little strong for a meaningless timeout.

I don't know what more you need...the Raiders coach himself said they "were certainly thinking about a tie and waiting to see what they would do timeout wise" I know the Raiders really well it looked to me like they were content to run VERY conservative run plays.
The timeout was a bit of an FU to the tie idea so the Raiders decided to be more aggressive. Its a message board, I call coaches and players idiots all the time lol
The coach and the QB has have come out and said the TO totally changed their strategy...what else could that possibly mean? IMO Raiders were gonna run another draw up the middle, kill the clock and try a long FG.
