re: Why go for 2?

I was hoping someone would ask this question, because I thought the same thing. The Saints would have a full 2-TD (14 PT) lead right now had they simply kicked the XP. This is a prime example of how teams go for two unnecessarily. It made zero rational sense to go for 2 after that TD. Hopefully, Brees stays hot after the Redskins make their halftime adjustments and that coaching blunder doesn't come back to haunt us.
