Absolutely stupid to kick the extra point. You know you need to go for it at some point, so do it sooner so you know what the result will be.

If you miss, now you know you still need two scores and can plan accordingly (you know you need to onside despite 3 timeouts, your playcalling is going to have to be even more aggressive, etc.). By putting off the 2 point conversion, you now have one shot: if you miss, you're probably not going to have any time left to do anything.
This is awful reasoning. If they missed the 2 points then, the game was over because they'd need two scores with so little time. Now they kept it to one needed TD + 2. Never go for 2 until you have to.

So is this an onside kick or ?

Onside recovery chances were always low but the NFL basically eliminated it now. It’d be nice if they could find a balance between player safety, which is most important, and still keeping it somewhat interesting.

Make the line to gain 5 yards instead of 10?

Now we just need the Pats to lose, and I can go back to not caring.

This is why Dallas lost. Dallas left their toughness on the plane.

I didn't realize there were a bunch of Jared Goff/Ryan Gosling memes floating around but there are

I was thinking he has more of a young Paul Newman kinda deal going on

either way, he's dreamy af

Loving seeing the Cowboys go down. The media hysteria over Dak's performance against the Hawks was ridiculous. Eat shit Boys.

Maher should have just beamed one at a defender on the line instead of kicking it deep.
The play seems to be to do exactly that which seems like a rule that’ll get changed as soon as someone gets knocked out by it.

The two maligned home teams that a lot of people were picking to lose surprisingly step up on defense today

If you actually hit the guy, the ball could go anywhere. Good chance it bounces right back to you. I would like to see kickers do this.

I may be wrong but it feels like defenses don't try to go for strips enough while down late in games. Try to knock the ball out with your hands.
