I almost jumped off the couch for a possible pick six there.

Analytics disagree. It’s basically a free play to make it a 2 score game.


I mean, if you get to a point later where the Packers score a late TD to get within a conversion, would you rather them have to pick up a 2PC or give them an automatic Crosby XP to tie the game?

Going for 2 there tells me Pederson doesn't think he can win the game without trickery.

It’s great hearing some Scottish guy do the color commentary.


It really is awesome

And no Buck/Aikman is always a victory

Rodgers

Why not make it a two possession game and put stress on GB?

b/c GB already has the stress of converting a 2PC... which I imagine is harder to convert than kicking the PAT

Any chance Agholor gets a target tonight? Feel like he has been in the frame at the end of every play, just not with the ball.

Umm yea. Dude are you being serious? King spun, missed with his left, and then flung his right hand back through Jeffery’s hand when he was trying to catch the ball. What did you see?

In case you haven’t been watching the last few years


That XP is no longer automatic. Hell last year it cost several teams games. Ask the Browns and Ravens

Carson just picking apart the overrated Packers D - hes been perfect since the first 2 drives.

Eagles will win the East if they hang on to this one

Little bit early to play that game. I’d rather be up 9 and wrap up the game in that scenario

It tells me he trusts his offense to be able to get 2 yards.

Dude. Carson ain’t doing shite. The packers run d is struggling. Wentz is 13/20 for 130. That’s not exactly stellar.

Yup going for two there is def the right decision - especially if you are a road underdog

Crosby had a one game meltdown a few years back. But besides that, a 35 yard kick has been automatic for him since he was at Colorado

ETA: I'm not some old school guy who says kick when you can kick. I was pissed when Georgia kicked the FG with 8 min left against ND last weekend. I like aggressive playcalling. I just don't think that was the right time for it, but I guess that's why I don't get millions of dollars a year to make those decisions.

He perfect on 3rd downs and almost all of those incompletions you mention came on the first two drives.

kicking the PAT is successful 90%+ of the time... even since the line got moved back several seasons ago

2PC is successful ~60% of the time
