How so? That's a pretty easy decision to make in that situation.

Really? How many times have we all seen false starts way down in the redzone and the line of scrimage pushed back 5 or 10 yards? Or how many times have we looked rushed in similar situations and the play is botched?

The call showed more confidence in our guys and they stepped up.

I guess those things don't happen all the time after all.

The 2-point conversion was a no-brainer. Kicking the XP would only put us up 2 points. Going for the 2-point conversion would mean we were only up 1 point, but getting it puts us up 3 points. Being up 1 point vs being up 2 points is irrelevant, being up 3 points is a big deal.

There's nothing gutsy or ballsy about that call, that's just common sense.
