[QUOTE=MTK;1299762] then taking a knee on the conversion to not risk a 2 point run back on a blocked kick./QUOTE]

Not saying I wholly disagree with that play, because with 30 seconds left the points were likely to be immaterial. But if you were worried about a blocked kick, especially given Slye seemed to be kicking well, why not just try a normal 2pt attempt pass with the instruction to throw it away if there's nobody open immediately? Someone breaks through the OL you just drop and take the sack/knee anyway, and if you actually get the 2 pts you've got an insurmountable 2 TD lead. Seems a bit un-riverboat like.
