I don't get it.

Why go for 2 at the end vs kick the XP and send it to OT.

You ******* deserve to lose.

I seriously don't get it. What am I missing?

Your not missing anything want to talk about poor coaching this was a perfect example... as well the 4-5 call to go for it on there own 35... with 11.35 left on the clock? Dumb dumb dumb

Did they not really need the W for playoff implications?

Ravens did the exact same thing against the Stealers 2 weeks ago. Could have taken it to OT with an extra point, but opted to go for 2 and failed. Harbaugh coaches these games like most people play Madden.

I just came across this article. It was just a gut call.

ESPN: John Harbaugh to keep relying on 'mostly gut' decisions after Ravens fall short on 2-point conversion try again.

I guess I'm just flabbergasted and a bit old school when it comes to this stuff. Part of me understands, but most of me doesn't. Maybe I've been watching Carroll too long?

He was playing to win, unlike some Coach who plays not to lose.

The real oddity in this game was the ridiculous PI call against the Ravens that gave GB their second TD and changed the complexion of the entire game.
