If bill o brien remains coach then nfl is rigged as fuk

**KingJD31** · 11-21-16, 11:44 PM

lets count our blessings

**Seattle Slew** · 11-21-16, 11:44 PM

Even that was a bad call, the guy caught the ball and rolled out of bounds. Should have been clock stoppage at 2:06.

Just hoping for a push now to end this shitshow.

Billy O'Butthead punting the ball in that situation almost as fishy as those fukking zebra calls. This is why I hate the NFL.

I cannot believe he punted that.

So strange.

Houston coach is a fukin idiot. 2 times he could have challenged plays that would have went his way then he challenges the next play and now he punts.

what a clown

The funniest part was that he was robbed both times. They reviewed the 4th play down and replays showed he clearly gained 2 more yards. It wasn't even close.

**jjgold** · 11-21-16, 11:45 PM

it looked like Houston was a lock
fuk

**Seattle Slew** · 11-21-16, 11:45 PM

Now you know why NE won shit with this guy on their staff.

Hindsight is 20/20, but terrible decision by Bill Obrien to punt there with only 1 timeout.

**turkkatarian** · 11-21-16, 11:46 PM

Dummy should have went for it. Absolute dumb fkn coach Houston has

Here's the 3rd down play. I checked to make sure if his knee was down before this. It's hard to tell in this picture but if you watch in video you can see his knee wasn't down.

They'll just say oops are bad and thatll be it.

**paco** · 11-21-16, 11:47 PM

Doesn't kick fg but but punts 4th and 5 with 1 timeout. Lol makes sense

Absolute dumbest coach I have ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever seen

**The Giant** · 11-21-16, 11:49 PM

That penalty saved the Texans about 40 seconds.

**stealthyburrito** · 11-21-16, 11:49 PM

Why did Oakland stop the clock by calling a timeout

**Calgunner23** · 11-21-16, 11:50 PM

penetrate your mom Texans defense!

**The Giant** · 11-21-16, 11:50 PM

Terrible decision to go for it, but it worked out.

These coaches are really bad.

They didn't. The penalty stopped the clock.

**PAULYPOKER** · 11-21-16, 11:50 PM

Houston$2,047,284

**MillerHighLife** · 11-21-16, 11:50 PM

It made no fukking sense. It would have been 4th and 5, not 4th and 20. The odds of picking up five yards seem far more favorable than forcing a three and out and getting the ball back with barely over a minute and marching down the field for a game tying touchdown.

Hopkins' touchdown that wasn't, combined with the horrendous spotting of the football on consecutive downs when the Texans were in prime position to score, says it all. This game was a rigged shitfest and I'm usually not that guy.

I don't think it was rigged, just bad officiating. The Raiders got some bad calls, as well.

**MillerHighLife** · 11-21-16, 11:53 PM

Lotta questions for the NFL after this one.

**GoBlue77** · 11-21-16, 11:53 PM

if you guys bet on this trash you deserve what u get. its so fixed its obvious

**Hu$tle** · 11-21-16, 11:55 PM

Rigged , that spot horrible, turned the tides half time adjustements for refs too

**tony_come** · 11-21-16, 11:56 PM

ESPN post game forgot to mention the 4th and inches

**pboozer57** · 11-21-16, 11:58 PM

Game was an obvious fix. Congrats Mexico on your HOME TEAM RAIDERS win. The NFL is a big joke. I can't imagine how mad I would be if I had Houston. Everybody was in on the fix. O'brain is punting on 4th and 5 with 3 minutes left and 1 timeout. Challenges the 2nd call but not the first which was clearly a first down. What a waste of 3 hours.

**omega** · 11-21-16, 11:58 PM

Houston got robbed on the 4th down call - Raiders got robbed on the interference call. Raiders tied it then went ahead cuz they have more heart. Atrocious calls all around but Houston is just a disgusting team and deserved to lose. Period.

**QuantumLeap** · 11-21-16, 11:58 PM

I hope these spotting refs get fired. If they don't then people should boycott this shit.

**ShogunRua** · 11-21-16, 11:58 PM

Just wanted to swing by and mention that the combination of coaching and officiating that happened in this game was the worst I have ever seen. I'm trying to figure out who is worse at their job....probably that O'Brien goof only b/c he had a chance to right one of the wrongs if he had even half a clue.

Immediately has the red challenge flag in hand after it was ruled short the 2nd (or 3rd tbh) time.

**Shafted69** · 11-21-16, 11:59 PM

HOU coach is dummy. Should've challenged on the 3rd down spot. But who knows zebras in booth mightve turned a blind eye on thar too

I'd agree... but the obvious bad call was challenged, reviewed, and not overturned.

Bad officiating my ass. That's what replay is for, to mitigate "bad officiating."

They misspotted the football on three consecutive plays, had the luxury of viewing the last one in slow motion with multiple camera angles, and still botched it without batting an eyelash. The zebras were all too happy to deny the Texans a first down and points on the board... Raiders conveniently win by 7. Total trash.

Nothing like what the Texans had,I wasn't rooting for either team so I wasn't being biasis but when you add ontop of the blown first downs the Hopkins TD that was called back,the Texans got screwed.

How about the Hopkins would have been touchdown where the ref said he stepped out of bounds when clearly he didnt.. I agree houstin is chit and probably didnt deserve to win but they got hosed and the refs gift wrapped the win for oakland
