Alright, 1 score game now

2 scores still. Why didn't they go for 2 there?

They are down 8. They can go for 2 if they score another TD.

Right. They should have done it last time. It's still 2 scores.

I'm a go for two every time type of guy... but I can see why a coach would take the PAT there and worry about the 2 *IF* they come to that point later... they'd have even more momentum and confidence then than they do right now.

??? It's one score if they convert the 2 point conversion.

No, it's not a 1 score game.

I know why they do it. It's just dumb. You go for it on the first touchdown and then you know if you need 2 scores or just 1. Now they don't really know.

Play of the game coming up

 

[Prince Myshkin]

only a couple of touches in the 2nd half for sproles is either a mistake by new orleans or good d by tampa.

mmmmm... you know you need to score either way... if you blow it there you're gonna deflate the whole team knowing that they need 2 scoring possessions. Keeping it within 8 (wether that's considered 2 scores or not) is very important for team morale.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

If 8 is a two-score game, so is 7.

No, it's not a 1 score game.

it's a 1 score game the same way a 7 point game is a one score game??? it's a td and a conversion. no coach is going for 2 there.

Why didn't TB use a TO when Brees was tackled at 2:25?

I know that's why they don't go for 2 down 9. Because people think 8 is only 1 possession. However, if they are down 8 and score and don't get the 2, have they planned for that? At least if you miss it down 9, you know you need 2 more possessions and can plan accordingly. It's not a huge error, but it is an error. I bet you Belicheck would go for 2 down 9 with less than 10 minutes left in the game.

Come on throw a TD pass to Graham!!!

if belicheck goes for 2 in that case, he is wrong.

sproles has to touch the ball more.

 

[TS Garp]

Thomas looks so much better than Ivory. Surprised how much they're mixing him in. I guess Payton is determined to stick to the 3-headed attack one way or another.

 

[Prince Myshkin]

bad decision by new orleans here. why not kick the fg and be done with it?????

There have been some ticky-tack calls in the early games so far.:BaldwinOwner:

Wonder if Payton was going to just send the O out and wait for either the D to jump offsides or a review.

Garbage time TD wiped out by questionable push-off. He kinda nudged the DB with his hand and cut inside for the underthrown ball.

(2:29) (No Huddle, Shotgun) 7-M.Cassel pass deep left to 89-J.Baldwin for 33 yards, TOUCHDOWN NULLIFIED by Penalty. PENALTY on KC-89-J.Baldwin, Offensive Pass Interference, 10 yards, enforced at MIA 33 - No Play.
