Early Game Thread

What was Tenn thinking going for the 2 point conversion instead of sending the game to OT?

I thought their defenses played really well in the 2nd half of the game, no way am I putting the whole game on a 50/50 play, especially when my defense is my strongest unit.

I wouldn't have gone for two either, but my bigger issue is passing after the penalty moved the ball to the 1 yard line. I'd much rather take my chances with Mariota and Henry or Lewis running an option play from there.

Yeah, I’m glad that I’m not a Titans fan. Terrible.

Going for it was a terrific call. Why they didn't run it from the 1-yard line I do not understand.

Overtime is at best a 50-50 proposition. One play from the 2-yard line is also about a 50-50 proposition. From the 1-yard line, it's even better. The Chargers D was exhausted and you were running all over them in the second half. Go for it and run the ball.

1. This is an "early game" thread.
2. It was created 3 minutes BEFORE yours about going for two.

Tennesee going for 2 twice in a row was dumb

Sorry, but this makes no sense. You can argue against going for 2 the first time. But you obviously go for it the second time when you're getting the ball at the 1-yard line.

wish I got Jax hou game

I originally picked the Commanders but considering how banged up they are I'm waffling on this game. I will be seriously pissed if the Cowboys win. 4-3 means they'll win too many games to get a high draft pick or probably any changes in management/coaching, and they still won't be anything resembling a true contender any time soon. The win would be a meaningless feel good moment that leads to nothing good in January.

Damn it.

Cowboys 24
Commanders 19

Hail or Fail. Your choice today.

Yeah, that was Linehan-level playcalling inside the 5 yard line there.
