I really don't like this challenge. Either way, Jones has the first down. Risking a timeout for such a small yardage difference is very questionable.

actually I think it's probably to kill momentum. But the risk of losing the timeout is always -EV to the momemtum killer. It;s still a 1st down here ldo.

Please, less MB3, more Jones.

I need 5 points out of Jones for a win, then they can give all the carries to MB3 [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I just came back in the room. They got a first down and still challenged the spot? I have never seen that one before.

I hate this long field goals with time on the clock, you give up so much field position when you miss, and you miss more than 50% of the time.

[/ QUOTE ]

Totally agree, and the difference between being up 10 and 7 is sooooo much bigger than 13-10.

[/ QUOTE ]

How so? Even if he misses 55% it has to be +ev.

[/ QUOTE ]

Because if you make it you are still up two scores either way, and if you miss there is a great chance of being up only 1 score when you forced 4 to's in first half.

[/ QUOTE ]

OK IMO that is just nonsense. 1possession/2possessions... who cares about # of possessions at this point? You're acting like there's 5 minutes left. Do you go for it on 4th&10 in the 2nd Qtr down 13 because "you're still down 2 scores" w/ a FG?

[/ QUOTE ]

Giving your opponent the ball on their own 35 is only like giving them 1 point, so kicking is +EV for chance of making >25%.
