Dr.Sack Posted November 28, 2023 Posted November 28, 2023 Subject says it’s all. 13 seconds, kneel down game. McD time and again opts for the kick. Why not go for 2 and make it a 4 point game? 1 1 Quote

Why not go for 2 and make it a 4 point game? Expand If our offense is #1 in the league and our defense is #32, one might consider something like this. Otherwise, it's reckless and stupid. If you miss the conversion, which has a historical 50% win rate, now the Eagles can win the game simply by kicking a field goal. If you make the conversion, the Eagles have to score a touchdown to win. You would have to have extremely little faith in your defense and extremely strong faith in your offense to do this. The analytics say DO NOT do it. 1 2 Quote

st pete gogolak Posted November 28, 2023 Posted November 28, 2023 KC game I was all for going for 2. You win or lose in regulation and force Bills D to actually play defense if you don’t convert. Different situation with Philly. If you’re successful on the 2, plenty of time for Philly to march down field for the win. Making it a 3 point game, makes Philly play conservative and settle for FG attempt. Quote

Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted November 28, 2023 Posted November 28, 2023 I only would consider this with no time remaining. Missing the 2-point conversion lets the Eagles win with a field goal, while making it forces the Eagles to score a td. Neither scenario is an instant win. Quote
