Chiefs Not going for 2....

**petegz28** · 11-09-2020, 01:46 PM

Twice yesterday you would have thought it was a situation to go for 2. When we scored the first TD if you go for 2 and get it then it's a tie game.

Too early? Okay....

When we scored our last two TD's we should have gone for 2 at least once. You make it a 3 pt game if you get it otherwise it's a 1 or 2 pt game which is insignificant.

It all came down to a 67 yard field goal attempt that in the past some lucky **** would have made against us.

Yesterday was not a great game for any aspect of the team until the offense finally started moving.

Too many missed chances.
Too many penalties on defense.
Too many 3rd down conversions allowed.
Too many 4th down conversions allowed.
Getting burned on a fake punt.
Bad clock management at the end of the 1st half.
Terrible game from Breeland.

It took a Mahomes-Kelce-Hill effort to eek out what should have never have been a close game. These games happen and in the past we have been on the wrong side of the score. This wasn't the Raiders game where we were playing a division opponent and the Refs. This was us beating us in every aspect of the game for about 45 minutes.

Happy we got the win but hopefully the bye week wakes up a bit.

Absolutely not. Fine decisions. You're up 8, you don't go for 2. Fail and they tie with a TD and conversion.

Yep.

We should go for 2 every time.

Yeah but the way it came down it was a matter of making a FG for the win. I'd rather them tie be it with a FG or a TD and Conversion rather than lose by 1 on a FG.

WTF are you talking about.

The problem wasn't the Chiefs. The problem is YOU not giving the Panthers enough credit.

I said it weeks ago, the Panthers are really close to being a playoff contender. They played hard yesterday and made some great plays. The Chiefs defense struggles a little bit when a team can run the ball AND get vertical with speedy wide outs.

That's all there is to it.

That kick had absolutely no chance of ever being good. They could have at least did a hook and ladder or some shit

That's an entirely separate debate but I don't thin you're far off. Dude is becoming suspect.

If the Chiefs don't go 3 and out on the last series there's no FG attempt.

You are making absolutely zero sense. They were forced to score twice in a very short time frame and we saw how that worked out.

It wasn't good from 67. A flag, a busted play or something and they are kicking it from 37. Just saying that you had 3 spots where I think you should have gone for 2 at least once.

In case you haven't noticed, we aren't a great short-yardage team. Going for 2 is a very risky option.

Nah. They made the right decision EVERY time. You always take the option for a 2 score lead

It's like everyone overlooked the fact that they've been without arguably their best player all season.
