Re: Giants part 1 Dumpster Fire postgame

im convinced one day a coach will follow analytics and go for 2 every single time. And be right. Im surprised Belicheck hasnt figured out 3 plays that are guaranteed 2 yards at the goal line.

Going by baltimore's stats

after 2 touchdowns:

kick 2 extra points = 88.36% chance of coming away with 2 pts

go for 2 twice = 100% chance of 2 pts (Im not 100% certain this is right ..)

[(94/100)*(94/100) = .8836]

----------------

adding to it ... that doesnt even take into account you have the chance at 4 pts max (25% chance) vs 2 pts max (88.36% chance)

----------------------

Ho Le Chit ... figuring out the chance of getting heads on 2 coin flips is complicated as hell. Apparently my math is wrong as going for 2 two times in a row would be "independent" and not "mutually exclusive" events ..

Schneed ... where are you? lol

edit -- chance of converting at least once on 2 two point tries = 75% not 100%

∴P(H1∪H2)=1/2+1/2−1/2×1/2=3/4

chance of converting twice on extra point kicks = i have no freaking clue

im sorry for this drivle guys ..
