    They're lucky they got a clear view of his shoulder down short of the line. How many plays like this do we have to see before they put down-the-line cameras at every game?

    If they fail, it'll be interesting to see the reaction. I kinda like the call, but most coaches would kick the PAT. The backlash from a missed 2pt will ensure future safe moves.


    Aaaaand they miss. I agree with Arians, punch the damn thing in.

    That was not an average drive.

    How the fuck do you not go to OT?

    I would have taken the tie there. They had momentum going.

    One drive though. Just one drive. I agree. Bad decisions not to kick the extra point. Momentum was on their side.

    The previous drive he threw two perfect passes for huge gains that were dropped. Could have been going for the winning FG that last drive if his turds don't drop perfect throws.

    He's not just average.

    CBS showed a clip of his post game press conference.

    He said he thought if they had scored with a minute or more he would have gone for the tie if 40 seconds or less he was going for two.


    HAHAHAHAHA!

    Genius.

    NOT!

    The Titans moved the ball extremely well all game; I like the call for two. It’s unconventinal and risky but not unreasonable.

    Yeah, that rationale makes no sense.

    That's the kind of call a bad team desperate for a win like the Browns makes. They could get away with it.

    Tennesse beat the Jaguars and Eagles on the road in bak-to-back weeks. A possible playoff team in the AFC.

    The call makes no sense. JMO

    I’m not going to frame it in any way other than if you think you can make it and win the game there is no reason not to attempt it. The game leading up to that moment reasonably filled them with the confidence that they could get it.

    Obviously the risk is there that you won’t abd you will lose the game. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

    Trubisky throws an easy red zone INT that is dropped, and on the next play Bears score to go up 17-7 on the Pats. 14 points off turnovers for the Bears.

    Luck with his third TD pass of the half, 232 yards of offense in the first half, 21-0 Colts over Bills.

    The wheels have really fallen off for Jacksonville. Third straight game with 0 points at the half, Bortles averaging 5 YPA, 13-0 Texans.

    I think Bills should try Peterman again in the second half. They do need some spark, you know?

    Bortles almost sacked in the end zone, but he gets out - and is hit from behind and fumbles. Next play, 20-0 Texans.
