Super Bowl Preview: Seattle Seahawks at New England Pats Game Thread

Pete Carroll face was priceless

The probability of hitting a two-point conversion is around 45-50% - whereas the extra point is around 98-99.9%. Not only is it smarter to force the opposition to a 45-50% play (rather than one that's a near certainty), but you don't put yourself in the position of going for a play that only has a 45-50% strike rate when you could go for one that's near 100% - forcing the opposition then to go for a play that only has a 45-50% strike rate rather than one that's a near certainty.

It was the wrong call. Period.

Except this is a game with like 6 lead changes and Carroll has to make the decision to put his faith in a defense that hasn't been able to stop NE all night.

Why don't you post the winning percentages of having a 2 score lead with 4 minutes remaining?

Kind of rethinking my stance on that 2 pointer.

It was a dumb decision. I'd rather take my chances with forcing Brady to make the 2 rather than Gostowski making an automatic xp

I smell bullshyt

[broller]

Will the Patriots go for two points if they get the touchdown?

 

[SubZeroDegrees]

Sean Payton and Beli talk this week.

what are the odds the Patriots win if Seattle makes that 2 pointer though?
