A deliberate tie? What do you say Chargers and Raiders fans?

If either one of them wins then it's in the playoffs along with the Steelers. But... if they tie then both are in and Pittsburgh is out. Humm. I don't think it's illegal. Deliberately losing is. It was once done in 1982 by soccer teams. The Chargers are 3 point favorites but the game is in Las Vegas. I don't care but it is very interesting.

Also Raiders can improve their position with a win vs. a tie (#5 vs. #7). The fans might tear that brand new stadium down if they just kneeled for every play.

These have been old AFL rivals for a long time. I don't see them coming to an understanding.
