Hello MCFLY!!!! You up by 4. What good does a 5 pt game do!!!! NOTHING!!!!!!! Go for 2 and make it your up by 6 pts. Which is 2 FGs or a TD and missed pat.

Going for 2 is THE ONLY RIGHT CALL!!

Take the point and go up 5. They score 6 to go up 1 they have to go for 2 to get to a 3 point lead. So basically babers is saying that he has more confidence in the offense to get 2 than the D to stop 2.

I kick it but maybe he realizes that his style of play has his defense gassed and they have nothing left for the last 13 minutes.

Indiana is terrible.

Well now you're down 3 so instead of winning with a FG you can only tie. But seriously, I thought it was a little early to chase points with the way the teams are going up and down the field.

Well every other 117 Div 1 coaches and 32 NFL coaches would go for 2 on a 4 pt game. You want to always give yourself a 6 pt lead. Guess my coaching instincts just kicking in but like I said every other coach would also go for 2. And so would Freak :)

I didn't like going for 2 so early but I understand it. I don't get why he didn't have that decision made and not have to waste another timeout.

Yeah the time out definitely didn't help the call. Would have had Box run it again. We got a break on that non TD. The D needs to hold them to a FG
