Nice game. I wanted the win but I think was more important was Thiggy being good and coming back in the 4th. We have saw his play in the 4th with a lead but was impressed with his play from behind today. Wish they had him roll out on 3rd as well as 4th down but I am happy as a piggy rolling in shit.

and I agree with going for two

I'd rather take my chances on a 2 pt conversion rather than a coin flip.

Just didn't work out in our favor. :(

So you think the odds of getting a 2 point conversion are greater than 50%?

I loved the call and Herm has had this team prepared the last 3 weeks we just haven't been able to pull out a win

But that is not the decision you are making. The odds of getting a two point conversion were better than being the first to score in OT. That is the decision.

Especially considering we havnt converted a 2 since Tony G caught one-many games back.

I would hope getting 2 yards is greater than 50/50.

And how exactly has he had the team prepared-we have choked the 2nd half several games this year-it shows Herm can't make adjustments.

Yep. The string of 3-and-outs we had could've REALLY benefited from the bootleg. Why we waited until then to finally call one is beyond me.

Bullshit. Take the 99.9% sure points (I didn't blame Herm for the earlier PAT miss and I wouldn't have blamed him here either...that's not a coaching decision) and go play OT. This was as stupid a decision as I've ever seen a football coach at any level make.

And I completely disagree with those odds.

Also, someone said earlier that you can't put it on the defense in overtime. It only goes on the defense if we lose the coinflip, which is a 50% chance. The chance of getting a 2 point conversion are less than 50%. That is the decision.

kcpasco 11-09-2008 06:31 PM

Meh, with a 1-7 team I agree with going for 2.

I can't even complain about the playcall, it was a boot.
Just gotta give SD credit for stopping it.

keg in kc 11-09-2008 06:31 PM

It was the right call, playing on the road, with this team.

Win or lose it there, don't leave it to a coin toss.
