Because if you take the time to think about the logistics of it, it seems insane. Do you think Woody Johnson or one of his top lieutenants took the time to relay a message down to Gregg Williams that in the off-chance the game came down to one or two final plays, he needed to send a call that would give the Raiders the best chance to win?

Does Woody Johnson have a direct headset line to Gregg? Or does Woody Johnson send his assistant on the sideline a message to give to Gregg? Or does Johnson's assistant give the message to Gase who gives the message to Gregg? Or did Gase call the D and use Gregg as a scapegoat? Did Woody Johnson's assistant bypass Gase entirely and give the direct message to Gregg? What was the message? "Hey Gregg need you to blow the game here, can't lose that #1 pick in the 50/50 chance Trevor Lawrence declares for the draft." Did his assistant tell Gregg to call Cover 0? What kind of timeframe was this accomplished in? Did everything go down in the 20 seconds Gregg has to make the call? Did it happen with several minutes left in the 4th before they had any idea the game would come down to the last 20 seconds? Alls I'm saying is if we're gonna make asinine conspiracy theories, we need some sort of smoking gun to establish credibility. If not, you're just talking out of your ass.

BTW the alternative is that a coordinator with 20 years of calling aggressive defense made an aggressive call that he thought was ballsy AF and it ended up costing them the game.

I honestly think double G wanted some style points to accentuate the Jets first win of the season .. bc thats how self centered narcissistic a-holes do, they want credit for any tiny success.

I agree 100 percent. That is exactly what that was.
