By The Pigskin Of Our Teeth, Week 15: Prestige and Pride

So the Raiders, facing a must-win game, have a new defensive coordinator and are missing four defensive starters on a short week. And Erin just reported that offensive coordinator Greg Olson was just put on the COVID list. Good thing they're playing the Chargers. Raiders start on offense. Carr moves players around on 3rd and 3 but he and Renfrow can't connect. Buck: "So a guy named Storm who plays for the Lightning Bolts..." for their replacement right tackle. Herbert flips a screen to Allen, surprising everyone and getting seven yards. Tyron Johnson picks up a first down. Raiders are missing both corners and a defensive end. Allen gets open and gets inside the Raiders' 15. Herbert to Henry for a touchdown.


Play action pass to Jacobs gets 17. Then he gets 20 yards on a run to the right. Carr goes downfield to Agholor for 30 yards on third down and the Raiders are at the Chargers' 5. Carr rolls out and very obviously pulls his groin and goes out of bounds. Field goal is good. First quarter ends as Mariota warms up on the Raiders' sideline. And he's in after the Raiders force a punt.


Mariota fires one to Waller for a first down. Tough run for a first down. Touchdown Waller on a perfect throw. Herbert finds Guyton on the near sideline for 11 at the Raiders' 9. Field goal ties it. Not a good punt by Cole with a minute left. Touchdown Johnson! Chargers lead 17-10 at halftime. Mariota lunges and stretches the ball for a first down. Jacobs goes over the top for the score. We're tied. Herbert throws to Guyton in the end zone but he can't hang on. I'm not sure he ever lost possession? And Trayvon Mullen might have an equally solid case that he ended up with the ball at the end of that. This is immediately followed by a delay of game penalty on the Chargers. Henry goes to the middle of the field and makes an uncontested catch, then takes the ball to the 12. Mullen's having a rough night — he interfered with Mike Williams in the end zone. That's his third one tonight, I think. Kalen Ballage takes it in. Fourth quarter begins with the Raiders going for it on 4th and 2 from their 42. Mariota finds Agholor through a tight window to convert. Mariota just misses Agholor downfield and... is that Jaylen Watkins laying him out? He's still in the league?


Apparently Gruden was wearing an OAKLAND Raiders hat earlier tonight but he's got a Vegas one on now. Erin says she can already hear the Frank Caliendo bit in her head. Joey Bosa stops Jacobs on third and short. Fourth and 1 with 7:40 left at the Chargers' 9. Mariota is rushed but Waller gets open and bails him out. Mariota rolls right, dives for the end zone... and unlike Carr, he makes it! We're tied at 24. That was an 11-minute drive. Ekeler! Chargers kick a field goal on 4th and 3. No good!


Buck says that was bad all around, as the snap was low and the kick was veering left from contact. They've been playing it conservatively all night against a bad defense with a quarterback who's been nothing but good all season. Waller caught that? He did! Nice footwork to stay inbounds. Waller gets open down the sideline for another big play and his momentum carries him out of bounds. Chris Harris with the interception! Zay Jones couldn't handle it and Harris returns it 53 yards before Mariota tackles him.


Two minute warning with 1:54 left. So how do the Chargers blow this one? They even have all of their time outs. This will be AMAZING. Herbert gets sacked on 3rd and 2! Aikman can't believe they didn't hand off to Ekeler.


Badgley on for a 51-yarder now. Missed AGAIN. Mariota off target for Agholor twice. This time he catches it but only gets nine and doesn't get out of bounds.


They sneak it for some reason, get it, but don't have time to spike it and run a real play. Four seconds left. Think the Chargers will blitz? They're trying a 65-yarder here? Bad snap. Overtime. Raiders win the toss. Mariota goes left and stumbles out of bounds. Heyward almost intercepted that. Another Mariota keeper, this one for 17 down to the Chargers' 26. Jacobs makes a move and gets a first down. They review the spot and move him a half-yard back, taking the first down away. Fullback dive picks it up. 5:29 left. Jacobs escapes another tackle and gets to the 5. Raiders run it into the line twice for no ideal reason. 3:26 left. Pass is knocked down. Field goal is good. Mullen gets called for DPI AGAIN. Bomb to Guyton at the Raiders' 2! Herbert runs outside for some reason. They get Kwitakowski for lowering his helmet. FUMBLE! It's the Holy Roller rule! (Which was created in a game involving these two teams.) The ball goes back to the 1. Herbert sneaks it... TOUCHDOWN! "I was in!" crosses off Raiders (Chargers 30, Raiders 27, OT)

The Bills' kicker almost fell on the kickoff. That's not great. FOX crew and graphics for this one. Broncos start with three runs. Lock takes off and gets to the Bills' 36. New kicker for the Broncos as I believe McManus is in COVID protocol.  Field goal is... no good. Allen to Diggs for 15. Allen keeps it and gets seven to the Broncos' 16. Then he gets rushed and sidearms one to Beasley for a first down. Allen rolls right and finds Knox for a touchdown. Diggs beats good coverage for a first down. Allen to Beasley for 17. Allen pulls the ball down and runs in untouched. 24 yards! Bills muff the punt and the Broncos get it at the Buffalo 35. A much needed break. Lock keeper fools the camera crew. Touchdown Gordon. Allen's completion percentage is 10 points higher than last season, which seems unprecedented. Now Spencer fumbles this punt twice but recovers. Deep ball to Knox gets to the Broncos' 10, then a roughing penalty moves it to the 5. Statue of Liberty HANDOFF to Singletary goes for a touchdown but it's called back because of holding. Damn shame. Two more penalties and the Bills are looking at first and goal from the 30. Coming out of the two-minuet warning, Allen throws a laser to one-time Packer Jake Kumerow for a touchdown. Bills blitz a safety and force Lock into a bad throw. Levi Wallace has a pick six if he turns around. Late flag for roughing the passer comes out. Schlereth doesn't like the call. Good catch by Fant in the corner of the end zone. 21-13 Bills at halftime after the extra point is missed. Bills DRIVING. Pass to Davis gets close to the 1... but not quite. They measure and he got it by the nose of the football. Amin thinks that was a favorable spot. First and goal. I'd still expect a sneak here. Actually, Allen rolls right and reaches the pylon. Lock gets sacked and fumbles! Jerry Hughes picks it up, bobs and weaves for several seconds, then finally gets a block and returns it for a touchdown!


Diggs beats DeAndre Bausby for 55. Bills get stopped on 4th and 1 at the Broncos' 4. That's a Broncos touchdown. Call it a touchdown! Thank you. Diggs was carted off with a foot issue? Let's keep an eye on that. Onside kick doesn't work. Singletary jukes and jives and goes for a 51-yard touchdown to ice it. "Get the tables!" Josh Allen wasn't alive the last time the Bills won the AFC East. (Bills 48, Broncos 19)

So it turns out Al Michaels is in COVID protocols, so Tirico will be calling the next two SNF games and Joe Davis will replace him on his Saturday assignments, starting with this game. Packers win the toss and defer. Jones takes off for 47 yards. Williams follows with a big run of his own. Rodgers to Tonyan to the 1, and then Tonyan scores on the next pass. Don't know how D.J. Moore caught this. Slye hits from 36. That's another big run by Jones. Rodgers steps up in the pocket, then takes off and scores easily. 14-3 Packers early in the second. Kenny King gets called for lowering his helmet on the hit on Curtis Samuel that caused a fumble, giving the ball back to the Panthers. They go for it on 4th and 3 and Smith takes it down to the 1. TEDDY NO. He tried to go over the pile and the ball came out. King picks it up but I don't think he's outrunning Robby Anderson. He goes down after a 50-yard return. Jones kicks his run outside and there's nobody there. Touchdown. 21-3 Packers. Samuel with his second drop tonight. The Panthers can't stop any Packers running back — A.J. Dillon just went for 19. Packers somehow don't score again before halftime. Bridgewater basically recreates the Rodgers touchdown. Are fullbacks making a comeback? Anderson with a catch and run for 15 yards. Bridgewater scrambles for a first down on 3rd and 8. He takes off again, gets hit at the 2, fumbles, but it's ruled that the Panthers recover for a touchdown... that will come back because of offensive holding. They settle for three. Rodgers is sacked. Crosby hits and it's 24-13.


Moore gets free after a short pass and takes it down inside the 20. Panthers... kick the field goal? That's an interesting move.

It also prevents the Packers from running the clock out when they get the ball back (because an onside kick is very likely to fail here.) Panthers come after this punt and almost block it. The strategy worked — the Panthers have the ball with about a minute left. Bridgewater gets called for intentional grounding, moving them back 10 yards. They get 16 back. Fourth and four and the pass is off target. (Packers 24, Panthers 16)

Signal Finder: SF @ DAL, PHI @ AZ, KC @ NO

The 49ers have a fourth-string tackle playing guard, if you've forgotten how that's going. No Elliott, surprisingly. He had a calf injury that suddenly popped up. Both teams go three and out, Richie James fumbles the punt, and one ref signals 49ers ball while another signals Cowboys. It's Cowboys ball! Catch and run by Pollard creates first and goal. Pollard gets stopped at the line, but gets in on the next play. Masters promo ALREADY? REALLY? Mullens' arm is hit and he fumbles! Cowboys recover. This should stand after looking at the replays. TIGHT END SNEAK? That's one-time Oklahoma quarterback Blake Bell taking the direct snap. Dalton to Gallup for a touchdown and it's already 14-0 Cowboys. Niners get a first down finally. Bourne catches a slant for another first down. I see the Cowboys still can't stop the run — Mostert takes a sweep 15 yards to the 2. Mullens to Jordan Reed (!) for a touchdown. Now there's a fumble on the ensuing kickoff return and the 49ers recover! This game SUCKS. Replay shows that the returner was down, so this should get overturned. Big run by Pollard. Pocket absolutely collapses and Dalton loses 10 yards. Zeurlein hits from 48. Mullens goes down on a corner blitz. Wilson does NOT score on a goal-line situation, which is rare. What's with this rotating overhead camera? Who does this help? Mostert gets stopped on third down. 49ers call time out. Touchdown Aiyuk! They call it a pass, as Mullens flipped it to him coming across the line. What the hell is "Tough As Nails" and why are you telling us it's "returning?" The 49ers jump, Lamb makes a great catch over the middle, and Jimmie Ward gets the worst of the hit he put on him. Another protection breakdown for the Cowboys. Zeurlein tries a 60-yarder with 27 seconds left but it goes right. Offensive holding ends any chance the 49ers have at scoring before the half. Dalton loses the ball after a scramble but is ruled down. Shanahan challenges it and I don't think he'll win. He doesn't. Steratore doesn't like the decision. Cowboys punt. Mostert is clearly hurt on the sideline. Field goal ties it. Dalton gets flushed out of the pocket, throws on the run and hits Lamb downfield. Schultz breaks a tackle after  a swing pass and scores. Mullens goes deep to Juszczyk for 30 yards. Reed spins out of a tackle and goes down at the 1. Touchdown Wilson and we're tied again. Interception! Cowboys take over at the 49ers' 29. Gallup is OUT, per reports. 46-yarder puts the Cowboys back in front. Cowboys run a weird hook-and-ladder play that doesn't get a first down and they punt. Anthony Brown intercepts Mullens! Pollard gets two blocks and takes this one to the house. That's that, I'd think. Lawrence hits Mullens, forcing an incompletion. Is he hurt? Field goal makes it 34-27 with 40 seconds left. Cowboys call time out before the onside kick attempt. They recover the kick and Lamb takes off. Touchdown! Well then. Bourne catches a meaningless Hail Mary. (Cowboys 41, 49ers 33)

The Ravens' last two scores have been safeties. That seems uncommon. The Jaguars don't have a punter today, and honestly shouldn't punt again this season. What have they got to lose, more games? Touchdown Dez! (Ravens 40, Jaguars 14)

crosses off Vikings (Bears 33, Vikings 27)


The Eagles have no one left at cornerback. Diving catch by Fitzgerald. This is just pitch-and-catch by the Cardinals to start. Kevon Seymour hits Arnold in the head with his arm after a 12-yard gain, giving the Cardinals a first down. He was literally selling tires a month ago. This is what we're dealing with.


Running quarterbacks have killed the Eagles this season. Eagles say Murray fumbled this but the refs disagree. No challenge. Short pass to Hopkins but he coughs it up and the Eagles recover! Hurts overthrows Ward on the run and is lucky he's not trying to keep Isaiah Simmons out of the end zone. Hurts throws this one away under pressure. It's called intentional grounding, and that's a safety. That's a not-great throw by Murray that Michael Jacquet gets a hand on. Murray gets pressured again and throws incomplete. Cardinals swarm Sanders, led by Jordan Hicks, who may have played more games in two years with the Cardinals than he did in four years with the Eagles.



Barnett makes another stupid mistake with that late hit. Terrible tackling, especially by Mills, leads to a Murray touchdown. Remember what I said about running quarterbacks killing the Eagles this season? Screen to Reagor loses six. Hurts gets chased down from behind. Is that Beau Allen? Then the punt gets blocked! It rolls out of bounds, delaying a touchdown. Murray passes to Chase Edmonds out of the backfield and there's the touchdown that was delayed. Jeffrey somehow stays inbounds. Hurts finds Goedert for another first down. First quarter ends. Golden blows up a reverse for a 10-yard loss. Hurts goes deep to Reagor in the end zone but Peterson breaks it up. Screen to Quez Watkins and he... scores?! Nobody seemed ready for that. Hopkins with a ridiculous catch between two defenders. That's 45 yards. Kirk gets ridden out of bounds short of the first down. Nugent field goal is good and it's 19-7. Is Brandon Gaudin sitting down? It is NOT Beau Allen, sadly. Murray goes down and the ball comes out. Eagles have it! His knee never hit the ground. Sanders gets stopped on third down. Eagles go for it, and Hurts finds Ward for a touchdown. Murray throws downfield to Arnold, who catches a low pass. First down Fitzgerald. That's not a penalty on Robey-Coleman, or at least it shouldn't be. Murray fumbles AGAIN but his center recovers it. Murray rolls left and finds Fitzgerald for a touchdown.


And he'll be catching touchdown passes against the Eagles three years after he's dead. Ertz gets open downfield and is knocked out of bounds at the Cardinals' 25 for a 42-yard play. Very obvious DPI on Fitzpatrick. Hurts keeper goes nowhere. These are some awful goal-line play calls. Ward makes a jumping catch but he's ruled out of bounds. Wait, hang on. Was he in? Booth calls for a review. One angle looks like a touchdown, one doesn't. Call REVERSED. Touchdown. The Eagles change their minds and decide to go for two, which seems weird down six in the first half. They run Sanders up the middle and... he doesn't make it. Cheerleaders in the rafters? Murray scrambles but can't get out of bounds. Snap goes awry but the Cardinals weren't even close to being set. Hopkins gets a first down out of bounds. Murray throws downfield to Johnson, but he can't get out of bounds and the half ends. 26-20 Cardinals. Eagles punt from the Cardinals' 42. Mills breaks up a pass intended for Arnold on third and 12. Reddick brings down Fulgham, who hasn't been heard from in a month. Eagles punt. Jake Elliott actually punted that, as Cameron Johnston... has a concussion? Oh.


Edmonds run sets up first and goal. What the hell? Murray throws it right to Marcus Epps in the end zone. Hurts gets sacked and loses 14. 3rd and 29. That's fine. Reagor gets 23 on a short pass-and run. Eagles don't appear to be punting here, which is odd because they were seven yards closer on the last series and punted. Hurts keeps it and picks it up. Peterson gets called for interference on Jeffery. Hurts escapes a sack, scrambles, and dives into the end zone. Bad snap on the extra point, and Ertz is apparently the backup holder? The PAT never goes off and we're tied at 26.


Third quarter ends. FAKE PUNT! And it's caught by the guy who blocked the punt in the first quarter. That's just rubbing it in. Cardinals have Murray just drop back and pass and fail to convert 4th and 2. Eagles waste this break by going three and out. That's a better punt from Elliott than last time. Good God. Murray to Hopkins for 40. Then Hopkins makes a leaping catch in the back of the end zone. Cardinals lead. Ward moves the chains, as usual. Hurts finds Jeffrey downfield for 40. Is he gonna pull this off? Don't give me hope. Well, that's back-to-back sacks. And then he and Goedert fail to hook up twice.


They use their time outs on defense and get the ball back with 1:28 to go. Hurts somehow finds Fulgham. Peterson breaks up a pass intended for Jeffrey and is furious, claiming HE was interfered with. Fulgham again! Goedert can't hang on to a low throw in the end zone. Hurts throws a Hail Mary too far. One last chance. This one will stay in the end zone... and fall incomplete. (Cardinals 33, Eagles 26)


I mean, yes. Yes, it would. Also the Rams got outplayed by a terrible team yet again at the worst possible time. (Jets 23, Rams 20)

Wait, where's James Brown? Brees back, but this third-down pass is low and incomplete. Mahomes throws up a bomb, a flag comes out while the ball's still in the air, and the Saints get an interception that I don't believe will count. It doesn't. Tyreek Hill makes the catch but gets stopped immediately and actually loses five. Brees gets picked! Bell fumbles, Kelce picks it up and takes off. He scores but this is coming back, as Bell was pretty clearly down by contact. Hill sneaks in underneath and Mahomes finds him for the score. Brees 0-for-5 so far.


Hill makes a catch but steps out of bounds. Touchdown Kelce. Kamara finally gets the Saints' offense going. Brees uncorks one to Sanders for 51 yards down to the Chiefs' 3. Taysom in and he'll take it in himself.



Weird situation here after this Wisniewski play that I'm sure wasn't the actual play call — the Chiefs are going to lose this down, but it will negate the illegal touching penalty in the process. Wait, that's backwards — the call will stand and it'll still be fourth down. Chiefs punt. Chiefs punt again and an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty buries the Saints. Saints end up punting, Robinson fumbles the ball, it goes into the end zone, but the Saints can't fall on it! Hardman got hurt on an earlier long pass, which is why Robinson's back there in the first place. He's gotta just go down. And Anzalone has to grab it instead of just falling on the ball. Wait, how is this a safety again? Free kick return only gets to the 40 and it's 14-9 Chiefs at the half. Saints start the second half. Mathieu drops an interception in the end zone. Murray goes left and reaches the pylon for a touchdown. Saints lead even after the two-point try fails. Sammy Watkins lives. Touchdown Hardman! That's unreal placement by Mahomes on that throw. Look at this:


Whoa! They just tossed Cam Jordan! Touchdown Bell. Chiefs get the two-point try and that might be it. Mahomes goes down and he fumbles! Saints ball and they've got a real chance here. Brees to Kamara for a touchdown. 29-22 Chiefs. Mahomes takes off for 20. Kelce picks up the first down. Chiefs get stopped at the 3 and kick it to go back up two scores, which is the right move. Make them score twice. Touchdown... Humphrey? Who are these guys? The Saints don't onside kick, which I'm a little surprised by. First down Kelce. First down Bell. That's game. (Chiefs 32, Saints 29)

Browns-Giants is classic? Whatever you say, Carrie. I didn't know Bret Beilema was even on the Giants' staff. So Freddie Kitchens will be calling plays for the Giants tonight. Browns by 24. Unless they ever bring down Dion Lewis on this kickoff return. He's into Browns territory! Colt McCoy starts for the Giants, and he was originally drafted by the Browns. "Omaha" is apparently not dead. McCoy hard count gets the Browns. Giants try a fake field goal pass? No idea what that was, other than completely unnecessary. Just run a play if you're gonna go for it.


Giants are also without CB James Bradberry, their best at that position. This was supposed to be Odell Beckham Jr.'s return, too. Flea-flicker screen? OK. McCoy finds Slayton down the sideline for a big gain. Engram can't haul in what would have been a touchdown. Gano hits from 37. Tirico's never not seen the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree in person and he acknowledges he's running out of time this year. Giants don't bother covering Hooper and he gets a first down. Mayfield stands in under pressure and finds Higgins downfield in Giants territory. Mayfield eventually keeps it himself and runs to the 3 on second and goal. Giants lose Hooper again and he'll catch a touchdown. Lewis fumbles into the air but the Giants hang on to it. Again, why is Alfred Morris getting meaningful carries in 2020? Slayton slips in the back of the end zone. Giants go for it on fourth down and Gallman doesn't even get close. He was stopped at the 4. Hunt goes left for 14. Browns with first and goal with 44 seconds left. Chubb gets to the 3. Touchdown Landry. Then he gets into it with a Giants defender and gets flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct. (It looked like the other guy started it.) This moves the extra point try back, and Parkey misses. So it's 13-3 Browns at halftime. Neither team starting off the second half all that well. Talk of Beckham and THAT catch. Mayfield throws a dart to Landry at the Giants' 16. Chubb breaks a tackle and scores, but there's a flag. Clipping on Jack Conklin will take it off the board. Chubb catches a pass in the middle of the field and takes it to the 1. Touchdown Chubb. Another 95-yard touchdown drive by the Browns. PAT makes it 20-3. Graphic shows the two worst offenses in the league reside here. Here's the thing: The Giants are bad. Engram makes a 25-yard catch. Gano sneaks a field goal inside the uprights. Onside kick goes to the Browns. Giants with a useless challenge, like most things they've done in the last several years. (Browns 20, Giants 6)

Curfew was waived for this. 12,000 visitors in the house tonight. They'll see their guys get the ball first. First pass is underthrown and almost intercepted. Steelers go three and out and Derek Watt goes down hard covering this punt. Camera is steadily on brother T.J., and frankly, he looks worried. Ryan Finley starts at quarterback for the Bengals tonight with Brandon Allen hurt. He is not to be confused with Ryan Lindley, who may be the worst quarterback I've ever seen start an NFL game. Steelers absolutely blow up this third down outside run. Bengals also go three and out again. Bad snap! Bengals recover. Finley hits Tee Higgins to set up first and goal. SACK. Austin Seibert's first field goal is good. The Steelers look awful right now. Big-time throw by Finley to Green for 30. Then he goes long for Boyd but it's broken up and Boyd is down. Steelers telegraph a safety blitz but Finley can only scramble for two on 3rd and 5. Field goal isn't even close. A 55-yarder with a rookie kicker on 4th and 3? I wouldn't have done that. Juju gets DETONATED on a short pass and it falls incomplete. Bengals challenge this, wanting a catch and fumble. Call REVERSED. Bengals ball! Announcers remember ex-Steeler Kevin Greene, who passed away today at only 58. Two straight first down passes to Tee Higgins. Gio Bernard picks through a hole and scores!


Snell gets stonewalled on third down. He's at least a yard short. Steelers go for it on fourth and I think Snell gets it. Yep. Ben looks for Ebron, but it's broken up and he takes a shot. Is anybody going to survive this game? It's also the second time Roethlisberger's missed an open Claypool. Interception! Mackenzie Alexander hops up and picks off Roethlisberger, then high-steps out of bounds and takes a late hit to add 15 more yards.


Bernard gets a first down. Finley passes to Bernard for a touchdown and this is turning into a disaster. Levy inadvertently references the Jupiter-Saturn convergence. (Riddick thought it was intentional.) Alexander stunts in front of Juju after forcing an incompletion out of bounds. Seriously, there's gonna be a fight tonight at this rate. Ben gets sacked. It's halftime. Steelers finally get a big play with a screen to Claypool that he turns into a 37-yard gain. Touchdown Johnson! Snell breaks off a nice run. Claypool can't make a one-handed grab in the end zone. The pocket collapses around Ben but he somehow finds room and Johnson salvages two yards with a diving catch. Boswell field goal is good, making him 41-for-41 in his career against the Bengals. 17-10. No drops tonight so far for the Steelers, so something's gotten better. Snell gets STUFFED. Finley takes a big hit (Including a shot to the head that doesn't get called) and still finds Green for a first down. The Bengals run a fake handoff, Finley keeps it and cruises 23 yards into the end zone. He's never scored an easier touchdown and likely never will. Juju gets open and picks up 22. This one should have been picked off. Roethlisberger goes over 60,000 yards passing and it probably came later in the game than we figured. The Steelers get stopped again on third down. They've been awful in short yardage situations tonight. Fourth down pass is incomplete, but there's a DPI flag. Snell cashes in immediately. Steelers do NOT go for two here, instead kicking the extra point. 24-17 Bengals, 5:32 left. Don't know why the Bengals are running back-to-back quarterback keepers with their third-stringer but whatever. That's why they're still the Bengals, I suppose. The Steelers will get the ball back. Pressure forces a throwaway. Ben launches one on third down but it's broken up. That probably could have been interference. Two minute warning. Throw is too high for Washington! Bengals take over. Third and 1 and the Bengals line up in the shotgun. Why? They don't get the first down and call time out, then bring out the field goal unit. 33-yarder is GOOD. The Steelers have a problem. (Bengals 27, Steelers 17)
