Just when you're out, ineptitude pulls you back in! Why Oakland, why!? There were three minutes left, you had the ball, the undefeated Atlanta Falcons were reeling, and you had an opportunity to close this one out and get a signature win in a tied ball game.

James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
