Why not go for 2 points....

[clownfish]

on that last TD? We would’ve only been down by 5 and therefore only 8 after KCs last FG. I was screaming at Flo to go for two. Down 6 and then 9, we needed two scores to come back. We need better situational awareness from our HC in these situations. Oh well.

I thought the same thing!

 

[Hamhocs]

No, you want to cut it to 6, get the ball back and win with a TD and extra point. If you don't get the 2, a TD and extra point ties it.

 

[Dolph N.Fan]

Good idea in hindsight but going for 2 down 13 probably wasn’t on that stupid chart thing.

 

[Fred Bear]

Ummm well 2 wouldn't have helped us a bit

Yeah it would. Say Miami made it 30-25 by going for 2.

Miami holds Kansas City to a FG like
They did and it’s 33-25 and now Miami is driving for a potential game tying TD and 2pt conversion for overtime instead of kicking that FG and onside kicking to try and score again because 9 pts is 2 possession game.

Thank you. We’ve got some real brain surgeons on the board tonight.

You won't see a single NFL coach do that anticipating giving up a FG.

Brother if you don’t like the atmosphere take a break. Tomorrow is another day.

I don’t think you can really be sure of that. Maybe it’s the Madden in me.

Lol the eagles do it all the time

This is true

 

[Dolph N.Fan]

This is true

It’s just that I don’t think anyone goes for two down by 13. Not many coaches think that far ahead and assume they’re going to hold a team like Kansas City to a FG while they’re trying to put the game away

We were down by 7 and went for the extra point instead of 2.

Coach Flores had confidence in our Defense....If the D had done what they were supposed to by holding them from scoring, Miami would be going for the win.

Go for two, and miss it, Miami is then going for the tie if the defense holds.
