That was crazy .... Kick the extra point and let your team get it done in OT, It's such a risky play going for the win there... Even if the Titans won it with that play I disagree with the call ...

Dumbest decision of year especially when you're in a division race.

On top of that they were clearly the better team in the 2nd half. Why would you be so afraid of overtime then? I don't get it

This is a decision some winless or shitty team make to try and steal a win

Rookie (I know he's not a rookie) mistake for Vrabel. He can't afford to give his division rivals any help, the Titans are not that good.

Horrible call and can't really be defended

I see nothing wrong with going for it. Teams “should” be able to get 2 yards. You have the chance to go for the win. Do it.

Don't disagree with it that much on the road, just with what the play calls were.

After the penalty, you run it in. If you don't get it, fine, you made a mistake.

I was yelling for KC to go for 2 against New England because I didn't trust their D. I don't think it would have mattered, but going for the jugular on the road isn't a bad thing sometimes. It just wasn't well executed here.

His explanation made no sense .

Sad he decided to go for two if there was under 40 seconds left but kick it if there was more time left .

Wouldn't you be more likely to kick it with less time left? I mean if you don't make it you are going to need time to get the onside kicks and try to score . Completely backward

Personally I would have played for OT given that A) The Titans suck at scoring TDs (a 2 pointer here but its the same plays) so putting it all on one play is a huge risk and B) They had done a much better job in the 2nd half defensively so a stop and a FG win was a very real possibility. But the call for going for 2 isn't THAT egregious. What IS egregious were those play calls, especially not running the ball on the 2nd attempt when the ball was on the 1. For once all season, we actually ran the ball well. Punch that shit in with a gigantic back named Henry, run some option with Mariota/Lewis, whatever. RUN THE DAMN BALL. Both of those throws were bad play calls with low percentages of being completed.

He's probably not thinking at all of the what ifs that would follow a missed conversion, he's thinking of what would follow a conversion. If you pick the XP when there's more time, there is the potential for the Chargers to go 3 and out and you have a chance to advance a little to kick a game winner. If you go ahead by one and give the ball back, the Chargers will be more aggressive and in 4 down mode, so better to not leave too much time for those possibilities.

Depends on if you think your team is better. An underdog should always go for higher varience, also known as "David Tactics". In this case, do you think you have a better chance converting a 2 pt try, or winning in OT?
