I seem to recall some crazy RR rule of going for 2 away and not at home… or was it the reverse lol.
Rule of thumb, when on the road, go for two. When at home, go overtime.

You might be right… wasn’t it the away Giants game? And he got roasted for going for 2… can’t remember for sure
Yeah, to me the situation was different. It was like he had already made up his mind before they scored against the Giants. He was scared today though. Saying the fellas were gassed was just an excuse imo. That said. I wasn't against kicking the XP n taking it to OT. I was relatively surprised that it was a 60 minute game to begin with. No doubt the Eagles wanted some get back fir last year, but the offense played like it didn't give a shit.

The biggest reason I would've preferred going for 2 today. Had to do with the offense getting it done more often than not today. Whereas the defense was more hot dog shit. I liked the offense's chances n didn't wanna see the game dependent on the defense.

We should've traded Payne last year and/or Chase. Though that would've been a much harder sell. The Skins need serious help on the OL n better LB Play.

Tough loss. Im glad RR didnt go for 2. We had the ball in OT but couldnt do anything. Damn it!!!

We need to start looking at analytics. We should have gone for two. A two point conversion is 50/50. We were 8.5 point dogs to a superior team on the road…that means we have a 25% chance of winning.
