The 2pt conversion

Of all the plays that went against us, we had a lot that went our way in the final few minutes.
But the 2pt conversion has got to one of the most, if not the most, critical plays of the game.

RW scrambling for his life again, throws up a floater across the field to his man in the end zone, who was well covered, and the defender couldn't make the play.
Even the announcers were wondering why he couldn't have made a play on the ball with the amount of time the ball was in the air. It almost looked like the defender couldn't make up his mind to go for the ball or the hit.

Turned out good for us.

That play was just insane. Russ threw up a prayer and it was answered.

That whole sequence of plays from the onside kick to the 2 pt play was just surreal . It was truly like a Hollywood movie .

All the "most critical play" threads make great points and are true but we do not win without all of them. Watch cannot work if it's even missing the smallest gear.

How often do you get to see a Hail Mary two point conversion?

Abosutely amazing! Cannot wait to see the "Raible Highlights"!

Without the 2pt conversion. We lose.

Honestly, that 2 point conversion was when I realized we were destined to win this game.

We couldn't lose it by a FG ala Altanta. and going to OT, after that.....who really thought we were going to lose ?

No point in trying to figure out how that play worked.

Not necessarily. We would have been up by 1,instead of 3. The defense would play differently in that situation. We could have lost, or slammed the door shut with more aggressive defense. There's no way of knowing.

Luckily, it doesn't matter anymore.

The on-side kick was luckier for us. You see who was supposed to have gone up to catch that ball? Jordy Nelson. He would not have bumbled it to us like his teammate, who was supposed to be blocking, did.

exactly.. why assignments are so important and what makes the Hawks very good.

He was going to throw a dart but didn't want Willson to drop it.....

And in regards to "we would have played differently". You mean like when we were up 1 against Atlanta.....

Yeah it allowed us to win the game

I think the wind may have caused that floater to keep drifting to Willson and HaHa misjudged as it just kept drifting.

This x 1000

Watch the footage from behind the endzone. The ball seems to catch a gust and bends away from Willson and thus further away from HHCD.

I'm a big atheist but watching that play and RW pointing to the sky afterwards made me wonder for a second.

I like this. I'll have to watch it again. The fact that HHCD seemed to be just watching it the whole time was odd.

THIS is why it pays to have a big freaking tight end. You know Russ saw him peeling away out of the corner of his eye, and when you have a 5'10 corner on a 6'5 TE, you loft it high and pray
