You think I'm gonna believe anything you say?

You're the person that said LeBron's legacy is ruined because he couldn't get an injured Lakers squad to the playoffs his first year in Los Angeles.

Steph's the most overrated league MVP of all time right?

Remember when you said the Cavs would turn things around before the Heat?

Remember when you said Riley lost his fastball?

Those last three questions are all things you've said multiple times.

You're a bullshit artist.
I am sorry you are angry because you are wrong.

He has anger issues. This is a weekly trend with him. Exactly why I try to avoid interaction with him on here.

The bucs injury excuse would be valid had the saints scored 30 plus as they did in the first meeting. They scored 9 points lol. You're not the GOAT if you can’t score a single point
Bwahahaha! So Tom Brady isn’t the GOAT because for the first time in like 250 straight starts his team didn’t score a point? Bwahahaha! Your hot takes are Skip Bayless level today.

You mean Shannon Sharpe. Skip likes Brady so he always make excuses for him

If the Browns win today, seeds 4-9 in the AFC would all have the same record with 3 weeks left

Who said I was angry about anything? Responding to you doesn't mean anger. But you are a proven liar.

What is it with you and wiggy thinking a response somehow means anger? This is what you do though. When you don't like what I have to say all you got left is to incorrectly say I'm mad about something.

Has given away 2 games in 3 weeks that way, all while having the best fn kicker in the league
Isn't it more accurate to say LJ gave it away last time as if he makes a better throw they win.

In addition, you are not taking into account they could lose in OT. AR/GB vs. Bmore/Huntley...who ya taking in OT?

He also went for it on a 4th and 3 on their own 30 to hand GB a free 3 points.

against Aaron Rodgers?

with a backup QB?

i dont know if its a "horrible" decision.

they are at home- so i guess thats one thing, but still......

if i am facing Aaron Rodgers with all my DB's hurt and a backup qb- i got for it there.
Right...have heard many say analytics blew it when not even sure the decision was what would be considered analytics based. Think they were 2-9 on 2 point conversions.

You alluded to it. In addition, sure, Huntley had played well but even if they win the toss I'm not betting on him driving for a TD to win it and I like my chances with AR then getting it done.

Didn’t you know that every time you disagree with someone on here it is a clear sign you are flying into a blinding rage?

Yep.

Green Bay owned the second half until they shut it down and played conservative.

I think going for 2 gave Baltimore the best chance to win.

Only problem was even if they got it, there was still 40 seconds on the clock for Rodgers to get in FG range.
I had thought of that and that is a decent point against going (though I still get why they did). Make it and GB goes all out to win with a FG (and good chance they make it with the TOs, AR and lack of DBs on Bmore). If game is tied, less urgency (though still think they'd have made it).

Yeah, I don’t have an issue with the decision overall.

The 2-9 on 2 point tries is pretty damming though.

If you are 2-9 maybe OT is the better play.

That's one way to look at it. The other way is they make it to OT then you may get the ball on the opening possession and Rodgers never see the ball in OT.

Also my other issue is both times they went for 2 recently with the game on the line is they didn't even go to their bread and butter.
A pass to an open Andrews by LJ was not their bread and butter (if not open could have tried to run if that was there)?

could your scenario have happened? sure....but you think that was likely when they needed a TD that ends the game and not going against a prevent?

If your defense can’t stop him for 30 seconds you got bigger problems. They had stolen all the momentum in that game, it was theirs.
I mean, if they lose the toss in OT does AR just go cower in a corner without momentum and not stand a good chance to score a TD(as he did often)?

Imo, in that situation, you go for it 100 times out of 100.

Part of the reason you go for it is because you are using your backup qb.

If it's Lamar Jackson vs. Aaron Rogers, then maybe I kick the extra point.

But, no offense to Huntley (who played well) but I don't want to go into OT with him having to beat Rogers.

Add to that, they had momentum, the Packers defense was on its heels and Huntley was playing well...seems like an easy choice.
