This. I really didn't see the harm in it. I get that 2pt conversion rate is certainly not a gimmie, but if you have the chance to make it a 0% chance of tying the game with at TD as opposed to 35-40% I'd take that. I think the difference between 7 and 8 is much less than the difference between 8 and 9. Either way great win and that's all that matters.
