Apparently they wanted to knock the Raiders out of the playoffs even if it meant losing. Raiders were going to let the time run out. Chargers calling timeout made the Raiders (especially the coaching staff) want to knock the Chargers out of the playoffs.
Agreed. I think LV was content running the clock out. There was no reason for LA to call that timeout. LV coaches say ok **** you we are gonna win this then and send you home.
