The Chargers mistake was not taking time off the clock when they got into FG range. A tie is the same as a win. So when the Raiders kicked to make it 32-29, you treat it like they are up by 2, not 3.
Team do this all the time at the end of 4th quarters when down by 2. Get into FG range, start killing the clock and kick the FG to win. Don't leave any time for the other team. So why were they launching balls into the end zone trying to win and then leaving 4 minutes for the Raiders?
