That's actually the worst thing you could do


Meh, its tied with just kicking the extra point on both. Probably a hair better for most teams. But essentially the same.

Going for 2 on the second TD and kicking the PAT on both are around 50%.

Going for 2 on the first TD is 62.5%. Thats why its so clearly mathematical correct.

Extra point conversion rate since 2015 when it was moved back has hovered around 94%.

.94 x 1 point per = .94 EPA

2 point conversion rate is around 47.5%

.475 x 2 points per = .95 EPA

In this situation it was the right call but you could actually argue going for 2 every single time is the right call.
