Why the f**k are you going for 2?

Makes no sense, kick the point you are within 8 and still have a chance, go for 2 and don't get it the game is over.

Here’s an interesting analysis of that question from six years ago…

Here’s a link to the default chart…which, BTW, says down by nine, go for two…

The chart is fine, but you need to coach the game you are actually playing, and be aware of where, precisely, in the game you are, and your strengths and weaknesses relative to the opponent.

Not all teams are equal, not all games are equal, not all situations are equal. One size does not fit all, which is the problem with a "hard and fast" chart even though it's correct for the most part.

Shouldn't write off the Home team this early in a Divisional game, but this is looking ominous for Seattle. Really need a score here to keep it honest.

49ers are scoring 50 odd at this rate.

Let's hope so. 

McCaffrey should never have got in for a TD there. 21-3 49ers lead.

It's like they actually teach tacklers to grab RB's around the shoulders these days. It happens in every single game, and every time they get dragged for 5+ yards. I'd be nuclear with rage if I'm on the sidelines watching my players do that.
