detlef Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Wouldn't you think they'd go for two almost always to get the reps? Just dawned on me as I watched Cinci go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muck Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Anyone have stats on 2pt conversion rates for teams vs. general short-yardage conversions? I'd bet that, generally, short-yardage conversions are higher than 2pt conversions, even though they're the same yards-to-go ... and that 2pt conversion rates are, generally, less than 50% ... so, ii I'm right, probabilistically, it's better to get the 1pt than to try to get 2pts. But, then again, I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, seeing how this is the PRE-season and, in my title, I asked about kicking PATs in the PRE-season, I can understand why they don't play the numbers in that regard.
