N/S Black Friday game: Chiefs vs Raiders (2 Viewers)

[Low Energy]

At worst that should have been a pre snap penalty with a 5 yard loss. That was a false start if anything, not an illegal shift.

That’s why the refs had to huddle up for so long to invent a way to give it to Chiefs.

Looks like the Raiders have invented a new way to lose.

No the Chiefs invented a new way to cheat

Exactly. None of those players went in motion for it to be an illegal shift. They just needed to figure out how to call it that

I think this is a major problem, coaches today rely too much on analytics instead of gut feeling. Last night the Dolphins coach went for it twice on 4th when it really didn’t need to happen. Idk if that’s it or if it’s like QBs now: only about a 1/3 are good to great and the rest are terrible

You would think common sense, in that situation kick FG try to win

No where in the same realm of coaches fault as yesterday this is ALL on the guard and Center. And I don’t know could easily have been a procedure call not an illegal shift

 

[LonghornSaint]

Technically the center hiked the ball, so it's a live ball

No one else was set! The Gs & C were the only lineman set, both the tackles were looking back to the QB as he was making calls. Illegal shift.

Where was the shift? Not one guy shifted/changed positions. That's what they come up with after having their long talk because that's the way they'd give the Chiefs the ball.

I don’t understand passing up on points early in games. It’s like teams have no faith in their defenses anymore to get stops.

Didn't even watch the game and now I'm po'd. The Chiefs are the Anti-Saints. They find incredibly ridiculous ways to win. The officiating and ball bounces all go their way. It's amazing for in every high leverage situation, the calls seem to favor them.

 

[ANKOMA33]

Dang Raiders!

Totes forgot there was game today.

Looking for the next NFL game then realized that’s it. Time to go check out some college games.

What ever they called it was a clear penalty on the Raiders. Nothing the Chiefs did was against the rules. This is coming from a Chiefis hat for the last 50 years!
