Doesn't need to be 100%. 50% would result in more points, because we don't hit anywhere near 100% of our extra points. Go back past couple of years we haven't finished below 50%. Also, we have the most amazing offense in the history of the NFL.

Chasing points is extremely risky business, it very rarely works out the way you think. |

Wouldn't need to go for 2 points if Buttker would just make his extra points

Yesterday is one of those times when I think it might’ve been better to go for two instead of one, simply because it got very windy out there. Anytime you have rain, wind, snow, or any combination of the above, it can make the kicking game a lot more risky. And we saw at least one of those kicks, I don’t remember who kicked it, but it started in one direction and then started to veer in the other direction before I got halfway there.
Otherwise it just doesn’t really make sense to go for two on every single conversion. |

With 2:42 to play, you kick the extra point and go up 9 points. You make it a two score game and every single time. Going for 2 makes zero sense in that situation.

No ****ing way.
This team's power running game is still ass. We can't afford to burn short-yardage plays on frivolous 2-point conversions.

The Chiefs could have played better.. absolutely...but the Panthers left it all out on the field. It was obviously their Super Bowl. I could see going for two to tie the game in the first half....but no way do you go for two at the end. 9 points lead requires two scores--you do not want to take a chance and only be up 8.

I don't know the right answer, but Andy never chases the points until absolutely necessary, yesterday's game included.
I, for one, like this approach, because it just seems like if you miss on it early, it almost forces you to keep trying later on, and it eventually cost you in the long run. Maybe it doesn't change the outcome of the game, but if Andy goes for the attempt yesterday when the Chiefs pulled to 14-12, and miss it, then the Panthers score another TD and XP, then they're down 9.....and let's remember that at that point in the game, the Panthers were 2 for 2 on drives for TD (albeit, throwing every trick they had at it). I think the risk reward early is too great early on, at least for most teams that don't have the best QB in the world, and if you do have the best QB in the world, that one point isn't going to matter much in 95% of the games.... |

With that swirling wind, and the way Buttkicker kicks extra points, I'd have sure gone for two at least once yesterday.
