So the 2-point conversion failed?! They would have scored 1 more point had they kicked the PAT :thinking:
Boo hoo go coach up your team and stop losing

Excellent point, TXB--I realize I am talking out of both sides of my mouth when I point out a largely "so what" story put up by the media, and then devote a thread to it. This is where the national media has gone in its rabid zeal to get views or readership any way it can.

Maybe if it was like 61-16 going for 2 but either way I dont see what the big deal is. Stop them and you dont have to worry about someone running up the score on you

I crack up that these coaches actually need a chart that tells them when to go for 2...:doh:
Up by that much with less than 5 minutes to go??? That's bullsh.....

Right? Especially when it tells you if you are not ahead by 25 points in the 4th quarter, you have to go for 2....25 points, that is a bit crazy. Doesn't seem like the field goal kicker would get much practice in game situations or am I missing something?:confused:
