Why not? OT is generally a 50-50 proposition, and making a two-pointer is generally a 50-50 proposition. Why would you prefer one over the other, in general?I agree but I still would never gamble the game on a two point conversion.
And if you think the specifics of the game make OT a worse than 50-50 proposition, you should choose the two-pointer. It makes sense for an underdog to do that, or a team who's lost players on defense and doesn't think they can hold up in an OT. The Ravens were both those things.
And I don't understand the "gamble the game" language. You either gamble the game on a two-pointer or you gamble the game on OT. You have to pick one; each is as much a gamble as the other.
