Really sucked. Instead of trying to get 2 scores with 1 minute left in the game we should have been in position to win the game with a touchdown.

Very underrated point here.

It made no sense going for two twice. The first time if you kick the extra point you trail by one -- so even at that stage if Arizona drives down for a TD you can tie with a Td+2pt. The second time, having a 5 point advantage instead of a four meant if Arizona scored a TD (they did) you'd be driving for a FG to lead and not tie.

Plus if they kick those two extra points you're driving at the end for a Td+2pt to tie again instead of needing to kick the FG and then go for the onside.

Poor situational football there.

I was going to make a thread with this same point, glad I am not the only one thinking it.

Take away the safety and give us our 2 extra points...This game ends a lot differently. That safety was huge.
