The Red King Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Have we successfully defended a 2-pt conversion this season? So far it hasn't come back to bite us, but it is a lil worrysome. That should not be more reliable then a PAT. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanSD Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I've noticed the same thing. It seems like 2-pt conversions are nearly automatic against this team and have been for years. I was seriously sweating being up by 16 vs. up by 17 thanks to the missed PAT. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Red King Posted December 14, 2020 Author Share Posted December 14, 2020 Hey, I posted positive on another thread! I'm loving this win, but I'm allowed to be a lil leary. Up 16 and I thought it was a two-score game, figuring Pitt would get both conversions if they got the TDs. 80% surrender rate, meaning we are 1/5 defending them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe we are at 0% at stopping them. what’s odd is that teams are converting in sort of the same way every time— I swear it’s the same throw to the back left corner or the endzone every time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warcodered Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I mean when your all the way down to the 2pt conversions to be worried about that's great but yeah they could use some work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case I was impressed how the offense barely put any points on the board in the first half in an obvious attempt to lull the Steelers into a false sense of security. Was a hell of an effort to keep the ball off the ground so they could intercept it. It was truly a perfect game by the Bills! 😁 Edited December 14, 2020 by The Red King 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wanna watch Buffalo blow an eight point lead to KC in the Championship Game? The Super Bowl? It cost us last year, and it's not fixed. Yes, Buffalo is a better team then last year. This was a big win and I feel like the Bills are real contenders. That doesn't mean I can't point out the one concern I have left with this team.

In total, the NFL is usually within two or three points of 50%.
