Those 5 games were probably not impacted because games aren't decided by 1 point very often, and the fact that the PAT was missed usually doesn't even impact decisions later in the game.
You are already at 99.6% chance of making it, the chance that you either make it or a miss doesn't impact a game is probably 99.9%.
The PAT is stupid, it should be done away with, and I'm surprised at how many people are defending the PAT. A few of the pro-PAT posts are exceptionally stupid.
