Actually it's 2% better odds at getting 14 points than the XP attempt. Not sure where you saw that. I don't buy it. If you miss, you are playing catch up and could end up with 12 pts to show for 2 TDs. That is a recipe for a blowing a game imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where I stand. Why chase points when you don't have to if you fail to get it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you make more than half of your 2 pointers, it's better than kicking. xps are not made at anything close to 100% anymore leaguewide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few Patriots fans of all people actually came to Tomlin's defense against another Patriots fan. The conversion rate is 52% - which the Steelers actually surpass - meaning that if you go for 2 after scoring two touchdowns you still have an equal chance at getting 14 if one of them fails. In fact, you have a slightly better chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSteelers56 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 We're tough to run on when Cam plays. It does help that we're facing Keenum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, he tends to use this to go up even more in a game like this and close it down quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vikings had 3 for 37. Much rather end up with ours than theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
