I don't always feel this way, but I agree wholeheartedly with Buford.
Yeah, yeah, I know what the numberz guys say, and I know that all the nerds say going for two is the right decision there. And maybe it is if you have a normal team that is at least average in most areas. We all know that the team's goal line offense is terrible, and we all know that their defense is terrible. So if you don't make the conversion attempt, and as far as I was concerned not making it was a foregone conclusion, then all they have to do to get to OT is what they've been doing all day long. If you kick, sure, of course they're going to score a TD. We've all been Texans fans for 20 years, we know the Titans are going to score. But you have to make OT less automatic.
This is literally what I was thinking as they were lining up to go for two.
