Why not go for 2?

Thoughts?

Don't think We're the greatest in the redzone and I feel the chance of success right now form what we've seen is low and there's still 2 qtrs left.

 

[hawkfannj]

Not sure why not there ?

 

[pmedic920]

That was my exact question


IMO, if there ever is a good time to go for two that certainly was one.

It is clearly a game that will go to the wire and points are critical. I think it was the right call.

I think the theory is that there is still going to be points scored by both teams, but we don't know how many, and therefore 1 point has a higher likelihood of being the difference in the end than it would be if we were in the 4th quarter.

Too early in the game PLUS running game not clicking yet

It’s too early. If you start chasing points too early you run the chance of putting yourself farther behind. Lots of game left to play.

I can’t believe people are still thinking to go for two anytime before the fourth quarter

If you miss the 2 and raiders score a td its a 2 possession gm

If you miss the 2 and raiders score a td its a 2 possession gm

Probably the most reasonable take.

 

[fenderbender123]

Current score is a good example of why coaches don't go for 2 early in the game. If we don't get it, we'd be down by 1 point.

Take every point until you are forced to deviate.
