Hey Spike, good to see you out here, good luck in the Soda Picks Championship!

There was a nuance in that situation, though ...... the Bills were starting the conversions attempt from the 1-yardline instead of the 2-yardline, due to a penalty on the Chiefs.

I might have gone for 2 in that situation also, regardless of the score ...... not to chase the points, but to take advantage of what was a considerably easier 2-point conversion.

Thank Cletus, picking the points in these games is so damn tough. Really puling for the Bills in this game.

True, but they took points off the board, and if the Chiefs get a FG here, Bills will trail by 8 instead of 7.

As I said, I probably would have gone for it regardless of the score.

Even if I were up by 9 points, I still would have gone for the 2 because you can't pass up an opportunity to get an easy conversion from the one-yardline ...... and if you can't get one yard, then maybe it isn't your team's day.

The games were so difficult to pick all season, I bet you I picked 20+ teams this season that lost by less than 3 points! It was crazy!

I would not have gone for 2 there ....... there is still a lot of football to be played.

Unless there are exceptional circumstances (such as a penalty on the defense to put the ball at the one-yardline), I don't like going for 2/chasing points until the final 7 or 8 minutes of the 4th quarter.

So instead up being up by a field goal, chasing the points bites the Bills in the ass.

I bet the analytics say go for 2, but I agree, take the point, they will probably need it!

Or even being up by 2 ...... if the Bills had kicked that extra point just now, they would be up 23-21, and another TD and an extra point would make it a 2-possession game at 30-21 ...... like I said, there is still too much football to be played and all sorts of scenarios that might pan out to be chasing points unless it's the final 7 or 8 minutes of the 4th quarter.
