I don't know how anyone puts that on the QB there. He'd already scrambled twice to just barely get away on first and second.
It's on the QB (and coach) precisely because he knows there's an all out blitz and his time in the pocket will be under duress. Just get rid of the ball.

Does Osweiler not have a deep ball? Everything seems short/short/short, though not like I've seen all of his throws. He's been effective, but I do wonder if defenses will adjust (and if he'll be able to adjust, in turn).

Nice to see a Raiders-Broncos game that means something -- just like old times.

Wow...terrible call/execution/everything by the raiders there.

EDIT: officials also missed the blatant hold by the raiders line. Not that it matters.

Why would you call that play? Had a sneak for half yard and likely a little more. Why call a pass?

So dumb.

I don't mind throwing there if you've got a one read play for big yardage, orders for a throwaway if its not there, and you plan to go for it on 4th down if the play doesn't come off.

That wasn't what happened.

Denver better hope the defense improves come playoff time...or the Patriots keep suffering massive injuries.

Quick screen or a pass in the flat isn't a bad idea; if the defenders spread out too much, audible into a run with Murray in the backfield.
I don't get calling for a long play though.

Where the hell has that offensive line been all season?
