Seemed like a stupid call to go for 2.

Collinsworth all in

55% conversion rate on 2 pt this season

95% on making both XP


BUT….the 55% basically says you are going to not be successful on 1, and if that’s the first one then the chances are still just 55% on the next one to tie it

It completely ignores how the odds change in different scenarios.  An alternative description of the same scenario is that calls LOSES you the game 20% of the time.  That's what makes it dumb.

I don't think that decision improved their chances to win the game. Even if it did, it's a one shot deal - you don't get the benefit of realizing those odds over 100 shots.

Yeah and the 4th and 4 going for it instead of punting.

I hope the 49ers and Steelers aren’t considered equals….that’s a factor and if 49ers are going against the Commanders and the Steelers are going against the Ravens. And to go farther if Steelers are at Ravens and 49ers are at home….oh and 49ers are playing in 70 degree weather with no wind and Steelers are in a blowing rain with 20 mph winds


So many factors that don’t seem to be factored in…BY ANYONE

How can you leave Kelce uncovered????

Oops I left Curry open 

Whoops I threw Juan Soto a fastball down the middle


Some things just can’t happen…confusion is not an excuse. Leave one of their stone hand receivers accidentally open, not Kelce


And brother Kelce shirtless with beer in hand hanging out of the luxury box is GREAT

On the 12 w 44 seconds and 2 timeouts

I would’ve let it go down to 34 seconds ds before the timeout

This is the game. Many get tired of the same teams but these are the best games.

Looks like both offenses have solved the opposing defenses, so we're into whoever has the ball last mode, barring turnovers.

One of the defenses will do something  unexpected and be a major factor in this outcome

Both D coordinators holding something back!  I'll bet Reid has more offensive quirks left than Buffalo.

I think that Bills 2nd and 5 was going to be a flea flicker, but the blitzer got the RB before he could flick it back gto the QB.

Reid’s 2nt time going with the weak ass receiver has been stupid both times. An insane call and this might be gigantic.

Nothing about him says ball security

This game like the last classic KC/Buff playoff game will prompt a rule change.

Should prompt a coach to not have receivers run the ball near the goal line and reaching for yardage when possession is key

Does Stefon Diggs still play for the Bills? When was the last time he did anything

I picked him to have the highest yardage receiving game….so I’m the issue this game

There is the missed kick I was expecting from Bass, he was shaky last week.

I’m good on hearing anymore about this “rivalry.” Burrow and Bengals have actually beat the Chiefs in the postseason. Buffalo is so incredibly overrated.

“Incredibly” is quite the stretch
