why do the chargers keep losing close games?
this is pretty gross so be prepared...
but let’s discuss colossal clock management and playcalling issues
there is absolutely no excuse for any of this

first up... end of the first half
we pick up the video in the next tweet & I'll outline the play sequence
keep in mind...
they're losing
they start with the ball on the OAK 38
and...
THEY HAVE THREE TIMEOUTS
watch how they use the timeouts
watch how they call run/pass

THEY HAVE 3 TIMEOUTS
1 & 10 RUN > 1 yd gain
let 28 sec tick off
2:00 warning
penalty
2nd & 19 RUN
OAK TO
3 & 16 pass > 1st dwn
let 35 sec tick off
1:39 ticks to 1:04
1 & 10 RUN > 1 yd gain
let 34 sec tick off
1:00 ticks to :26
forget the end result... Herbert has a 27 yard TD to a wide open Keenan Allen on a blown coverage
that's NOT the point
THEY HAVE 3 TIMEOUTS & USE ZERO
they're running draws in a 2 minute situation
they're audibling at the line to runs as the clock ticks down
it's madness

meanwhile, instead of going insane in the booth while this egregious time wasting is occuring...
...the announcers are discussing Anthony Lynn's white beard stubble and how it's a good look and discussing beard grooming products
what are we even doing here

now the final 2 minutes
watch the Chargers...
...let 28 seconds tick off before calling a TO
...call 5 of their first 6 plays to the middle of the field as opposed to the sideline
...get out of bounds on just 1 of their first 7 plays
RESULT?
just 2 end zone shots and a loss
