Why did the Raiders go into a prevent defense, especially only up by three points. With linebackers dropping back 15-20 yards, the Raiders were all but giving the Chargers at least a tie and a very good chance at a win. The Raiders do this over and over and over....the worst defensive team in the last two minutes of a game. But the sad thing is it isn't so much a lack of talent but a lack of judgment. The prevent defense prevents wins.
Offerring an alternative to the Raiders coaching staff: What you need to do in this instances is to put extreme pressue on the quarterback. If he then beats you with a long pass so be it. At least you have a much better chance, and you play to win.
