It wouldn't have mattered anyway, but I'm sure the team in any of those situations is still desperate enough to attempt an onside kick. I’m not saying they shouldn’t have gone for an onside kick. I was just annoyed at the commentators suggesting that the same outcome of that onside kick would have happened if they went for one point or two, which it clearly wouldn’t have. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just complete nonsense. I'm sure you realise this is a different situation to the likes of a football team trailing 1-0, having a goal disallowed, then later equalising and the commentators saying "if only that earlier goal had counted they would have won" but are just being stubborn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we don't know what would've happened because they went for two and failed. It could have been successful, it may have failed. We won't ever know, and I doubt it would have impacted the result anyway. Edited January 25, 2021 by RossBFaeDundee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The commentators were going on as if they went for one the same thing would have happened. Which it wouldn’t have.

No, they just said it would have been a better idea had they just went for the extra point. Think it just extended their confusion as to why Buffalo for the 2PC in the first place.

Think it just extended their confusion as to why Buffalo for the 2PC. I’m pretty sure Tony Romo was going on about how if they had went for the extra point then they would have been in a great field position off of that onside kick? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right that a Mahomes in the pocket is better than Henne in the pocket, but he's playing the #2 Bills. It will be interesting for sure. I think he was fine, haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Golden God Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 If they kick the XP, they would have went for the onside kickIf they converted for 2, they would have went for the onside kick. If the onside kick had failed after either of those scenarios people wouldn’t have been saying aw I wish he had failed going for 2 cause then we might have recovered the onside kick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that not what the commentator said though? He was suggesting if they went and kicked a point then that onside kick would have happened exactly like it did? If I’ve taken that totally differently then I shall quite happily admit I’ve made a total arse of myself over the last few pages! -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Bit of a 'meh' weekend all around. Disappointed the Bills didn't make more of a game of it, and the decision to kick the field goal up in GB is a headscratcher. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambie's Pigeon Feed Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Poor from the Bills although I was drifting in and out of consciousness in the second half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
