Chiefs Go for two after Skyy TD? - Page 2

Prison Bitch · 02-13-2023, 03:00 PM

Moore scores 9:22 left to put us up 7 (34-27). Do you go for two?

Pro:

-you’re up two scores if you convert. Philly needs two possessions to even have a chance. The way we controlled the ball that might be difficult
-if you don’t convert and Philly scores, it would take balls of steel for Sirianni to go for the win so you’re unharmed. Esp with their likely being plenty of clock for Patrick. Odds they kill 9min are slim

Con:

-If you don’t convert he actually *might* show those balls and we can’t stop Hurts running
-even if you do, you might entice them into an onsides kick with plenty of time (4min?)

Net: I’d do this more often if I’m a coach but Philly might be the exception

Did anyone else notice Elliot's plant ankle on his last kickoff? It slipped and rolled much like Butker's did in our opening game. They may have gone for 2 because it is possible that Elliot may have much less than 100% at that point. He never kicked again in the game; it was the kickoff after the field goal in the third.

I saw that and had flashbacks of Buttkicker in week 1.

Why wouldn't they go for every 2 point play then?

with the eagles gaining short yardage at will, going for 2 was the right call

You also have a 2 score lead and can be alot more aggressive on defense.

Because they’re not always scoring TDs against the greatest player in the history of the sport in the 4th quarter of the Super Bowl.
