NFL approves extra point proposal

#47

Quote:Good point. I think it'll just be understood amongst the teams that going for two is going to be awfully difficult to do, so you might as well kick.
This. I still think the two-point conversion will be an uncommon choice because it's staying far enough back that there won't be a significant advantage to doing so. I've read speculation that had the league moved the two-point conversion to the one yard line, going for two might have become the default option for most teams, figuring they could get it from that distance at least 50% of the time easily. Maybe the league didn't want to see that happen for some reason? Injury risk? Fear of altering the game too dramatically? Or maybe there will be another change to PATs next year, moving the two-point attempt to the one?

 

I'd guess that some team out there will go for two from the 15 on a trick play early-ish in the season and suffer an epic fail, and that'll be the end of that.
