It's wrong to let them score too. You're winning the game. Stop them at all costs and block the FG. Saying 3 points is guaranteed is the same as saying a blocked FG or turnover is guaranteed.

 

I will die on this hill.

 

If you're losing the game, you score. If you're winning the game, you stop them from scoring. It's as simple as that.

 

Overthinking it and making assumptions is how you lose.


It’s about strategy to give your team the best odds of winning. Walk off fg with time gone is the best in that situation. Why do you think the Eagles defense just let him scored? They knew that was THEIR best chance of winning by getting the ball back quickly. Saleh was not pleased when Breece scored.

Yes he was. Because they were losing and Breece Hall's score made them winning. The Eagles defense let them score because they made assumptions and look...they lost the game.

 

You're saying it was smart to give opposing team the game winning score and give the ball to a QB who's been struggling all game?

 

Well, look at the result. You gave away the points that cost the game and your QB did nothing. Way to go.

It isn’t. But it’s better odds than giving your opponent the ball back with almost 2min and 2 timeouts. 

Scoring the TD gives you the best odds of winning because it 100% gives you more points than than the other team.

Yes in that situation it is. From the Eagles perspective the Jets were already in chip shot range. Just hand off a few times to take time off. Yes their qb struggled. But if they get the ball back there’s still a chance vs not getting the ball back with time and no chance.

 

Yeah 100% more points at THAT point of the game. There’s still plenty of time left. Eagles tried to do this in the Superbowl but Chiefs didn’t bite. Because they’re a better coached team that has situational awareness.
