Look at Ginn. 

Pointed that out to my game watching buddy on replay when it happened.

A little more blocking, a quicker throw, a scramble or this newfangled thing they call a rollout, and who knows?

Aren't you supposed to take the deep outs in between the CB and the S when facing Cover 2? 

I think Cam is waiting on KB or Olsen. That was his read based on the coverage, and I think it was the right read. Just needed another half second to get the ball off. 

So he needed 4 seconds to get the ball off? With our offensive line?

 

Brilliant.

Wait... There's some of you that are actually putting this on Cam?

Ginn is 5 yards away from the sticks with Sean Smith playing at the 1st down line and already starting to make his break downhill the second Ginn stops. Cam was just about to throw his way anyway but even if he does get it to Ginn there's no way he picks up that 1st

Look at Ginns angle. He easily would have had first of the middle if not more. That play is on the blocking and Cam. 

[Mr. Scot]

Worth noting that if the playcalling and execution on the previous plays had been better, we're not looking at 4th and 10.

Olsen was definitely his first read and he stuck with him for awhile. Honestly, I'm surprised he didn't try to rifle that thing in there.  The window was super tight, but it was there.

Gotta give credit where credit is due, that was just a damn good play by the Raiders.

Yep and once Cam realized neither Benji or Olsen were open he went to throw to Ginn but it was too late.

Fwiw, I would have liked them to roll Cam out on that play, give him a chance to run or pass.  Actually, that is what I wish they had done the play before.

I knew the sack would happen.

I would have liked for them to roll Cam at several points during this game and several previous games.

The only logic I can possibly imagine for not doing it is his ankle being bad.

If his ankle isn't bad, then it's just clueless coaching.

Even if his ankle was bad, rolling him away from Mack would have been a pretty good option.  We did roll him out a couple of times during the game, but not enough imo.

Cam has said himself that he was told not to run, and that he was just doing what he was told.

Wtf was Fozzy doing?

He was going to give Turner help on the outside but the defende(Mack?) had a nice spin move and went inside rendering Fozzy useless.

Cam just needed 1 mor sec, have to upgrade the OL.

They should have had Stew in there.
