If they can make stop they got this

Would you go for 2 if they score here?
Not sure a field goal does them much good here.
The goal isn't to extend the time when you theoretically are "still in the game". The goal is to win. If you punt (and aren't given the first down on a penalty), you'll lose: it'll just take longer. If you convert the 4th down and keep playing aggressively, you actually have a real chance. This FG they just kicked was another terrible decision, designed to keep them from getting blown out but not actually trying to win.Going for 4th down inside your 30 in a two score game with over 20 minutes on the clock is playing to lose. Fail, and the game is over.
Agreed. It is like bringing a knife to a gunfight.
You think they're likely to keep Atlanta from scoring the rest of the way? If they're lucky, they'll hold ATL to another FG and be in the same predicament.Tough call there, but you now don't have to rely on converting two two point conversions.
I miss the 1980's. When TV commercials during NFL games were about razors, cars, and beer. Do we really need so many Viagra ads?
