NFL podcast Charlie O Sun Nov 30, 2025

#1 What does Chicago Bears’ upset win over Philadelphia Eagles — including a massive 255-yard combined rushing effort — mean for their playoff chances this season?

#2 With injuries piling up across the league (the Baltimore Ravens’Chandler Martin’s season-ending ACL tear), how are team depth and roster management becoming more critical as they head into the final stretch?

#3 Kansas City Chiefs just got graded a “B” for a narrow loss — what does this signal about the sustainability of their recent playoff-level standards under pressure?

#4 Charlie, does the firing of Las Vegas Raiders assistant coach Chip Kelly really underscore head coach Pete Carroll’s goal of building up the team. Does that leave a bitter taste in Carroll’s mouth as he had no real say in Kelly’s firing? The Raiders lost another tough one again to the Los Angeles Chargers 31-14.

#5 For teams with rookie or newly returned quarterbacks such as the Cleveland Browns Shedeur Sanders, how important is coaching support and defense-driven wins in shaping their long-term future this season?

On Las Vegas podcast with Rich Perez:

#1 Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew led the Raiders with three scoring drives in fourth and critical last quarter of the game.

#2 Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson got off a 38 yarder with 27 seconds left in the game and the Raiders were able to get by a very tough Baltimore Ravens team 26-23.

#3 The Ravens looked like they had this one when running back Derrick Henry rushed for a touchdown to give the Ravens a ten point 23-13 lead with 12 minutes left in game.

#4 Minshew once again reached down and went for the gusto and led the Raiders with three scoring drives which was the huge difference coming back against one of the toughest teams in the NFL for the win.

#5 The Raiders host a struggling Carolina Panthers team that have lost their first two games of the season. The Panthers could be easy work for the Raiders having this game back at Allegiant Stadium and Minshew firing on all cylinders.

Las Vegas Raiders podcast with Tony Renteria: Critics question Pierce’s decision to punt rather go for it in 4th quarter decision

Lots of questions for Las Vegas Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce regarding the decision to punt on 4th and 1 at the Los Angeles Chargers 34 with just over seven seconds left in the game rather than going for it in a post game conference at So Fi Stadium on Sun Sep 8, 2024 (AP News photo)

On the Las Vegas Raiders podcast with Tony R:

#1 With the Las Vegas Raiders behind the Los Angeles Chargers by six points with a little more than seven minutes left and fourth and one with the Raiders having the ball head coach Antonio Pierce chose to not to go for it but decided to punt. He’s been getting a landslide of criticism for the decision and some say that decision lost the game on Sunday.

#2 The ball was punted from the 43 yard line. So Fi Stadium had a lot of old Los Angeles Raiders fans there to support the Las Vegas team and when the decision was made to punt you could hear the groans of the fans playing Sunday quarterback in disagreeing with the decision.

#3 Raiders starter Gardner Minshew didn’t have the kind of afternoon under center that had planned for 257 yards, just one touchdown and one interception.

#4 Peirce explained that the defense could have got the ball back with enough time to get the winning touchdown. Critics argue Peirce should have struck while the iron was hot.

#5 The Raiders head to Baltimore to take on the Ravens who are coming off a 27-20 loss to Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs. Ravens quarterback LaMar Jackson could be a handful for the Raiders defense will need to put the pressure on in order to have a shot at winning this one. Seeing how the Raiders struggled against the Chargers in the fourth quarter how can the Raiders turn it around Sunday in Baltimore?

Las Vegas Raiders podcast with Rich Perez: Raiders fall apart in fourth quarter; Chargers score two TDs to seal victory 22-10 at So Fi

Las Vegas Raiders Head Coach Antonio Pierce works the sidelines against the Los Angeles Chargers at So Fi Stadium in Inglewood CA on Sun Sep 8, 2024 (AP News photo)

On the Las Vegas Raiders podcast with Rich Perez:

#1 The Las Vegas Raiders and the Los Angles Chargers were involved in a defensive match up at So Fi Stadium in the Southland on Sunday afternoon. All the Chargers scoring were field goals through the first three quarters and a touchdown in the fourth quarter.

#2 Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew just couldn’t much offense going outside of a first quarter 31 yard touchdown pass to Alexander Mattison with 45 seconds left in first quarter.

#3 The only other score that the Raiders got was a Daniel Carlson’s 56 yard field goal at 10:30 in the fourth quarter. This was a contrast compared the one point 7-6 lead they held until the Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker booted a 24 yard field goal with 9:08 remaining in the third quarter to take the lead.

#4 The Raiders couldn’t stop the Chargers offense in the fourth quarter scoring two touchdowns one on a JK Dobbins 12 yard carry and a quarterback Justin Herbert ten yard pass to Ladd McConkey for ten yards and the Chargers came away with a 22-10 final.

#5 It’s off to Baltimore as the Raiders face one of the toughest quarterbacks in football in LaMar Jackson. The Ravens lost a tough one today against the Kansas City Chiefs losing by a touchdown 27-20 but after what happened to the Raiders today the defense will need to really regroup as it could be a long day for the defense trying to stop Jackson and the Ravens.
