Default Re: American Fottball: When to Go for Two

Didn't need to read past "It is the 1st quarter" and "It is the 3rd quarter" to vote no on the first 2.

3rd one is close, I gave the slight edge to yes. People might say but if you miss and they kick a field goal you're down my 8 and need 2 points, but I don't like the chances that you'd gonna hold a team that's put up 41 on you and is driving to a field goal.

I could see an argument against going for 2 based on the fact that there's 13 minutes left and you're in a shootout, so who cares about a 3 vs. 4. vs. 5 point deficit.

You are an idiot then. The 2nd and 3rd one are the same if time is not a factor.

Ummm....that's exactly what I said. "3rd quarter" you potentiall have half the game left. 13 minutes left, you potentially have just one meaningful posession left, so you put yourself in a position to tie with a FG. As I said, if there is one, the edge is slight.

But lack of reading comprehension is something I'd expect from a Yankee fan, so you are excused.
