2021 Miscellaneous NFL News

I sort of get the FG but I'd absolutely have gone for it. You'll probably have time for two more possessions and it removes the necessity of converting two 2pts. Technically you can still surrender a FG at some point and still go to OT.

 

Don't think it's going to matter at all. Not what I'd have done but I can see the thinking.

Man I am so glad McCarthy no longer coaches my team

 

Me too, but I don't have a huge issue with the FG.

 

 

It's not a ton different than what MLF did in the NFCCG last year, honestly.

What MLF did was worse but I also don't really really hate it here.

What is a field goal going to do for you here?

 

Meh. Two TDs wins it now. Getting two 2 point conversions just to tie is no sure thing.

By kicking the field goal, the win percentage jumped from 3.6% to 4%, so I guess?

Jimmy G gonna Jimmy G

[OldSchoolSnapper]

FG looks way better if they can get 6 here. I'd assume they'd go for 2 here.

Yeah I mean I just wouldn't have had a huge issue with either call and I think the percentages there probably reflect that.

 

Looks a lot worse if he misses obviously.

[yourout]

So glad Jimmy G is not our QB.

 

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Guess the PAT is fine but at 23-18 you can give up a FG and it remains one possession. If you miss, you can still go to OT with a TD but yeah, you give up winning with 2 TDs. I think you can go either way but I'd go for 2 personally.

[PinaMadness]

I didn't take into account the Jimmy G factor with that field goal.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Jimmy G did a great job of showing its value...

[homer]

they should be giving the ball to Deebo every play

[Fear The Chorizo]

Tony Romo, please stop with the manufactured Jimmy G future crap. He stinks

[adambr2]

And at 23-16 a TD and PAT no longer wins it.

 

I guess I don't what the book says but my first instinct on going for 2 when a PAT puts you down 6 is that it would be a crazy and overthinking thing to do.

The Niners are imploding.

 

Never mind.

The Niners are imploding.

 

Never mind.

 

That potential disaster started with a really off the Mark throw from garoppolo.

[MrTPlush]

My god these announcers are annoying. They are acting like this drive is the end of the freaking game.

[Fear The Chorizo]

This is not the same 49ers squad that did whatever they wanted against gb in the 2019 nfccg....doesn't look like either team wants to make a playright now. Penalties, dropped gimme picks.

 

Rooting for the 49ers to eek this one out...

That's what I said. Personally I'd want to leave myself the margin for error of them getting a FG. If the worst case is being down 7 I'm fine with that but I'm more aggressive than most.

I've found Gabrielle Nevaeh Green's naiveté quite refreshing, personally.

[homer]

go for it!

I honestly think SF/LAR/AZ are going to be similar opponents. I just want to play Saturday.

If they end up giving up a FG I think the clock is going to be the bigger problem. They simply need a stop.

[homer]

cowards!

I'd agree with that, on top of thinking az/lar would have a better shot at knocking Tampa off next weekend, too.
