Re: **Official NFL Thanksgiving Day Games Thread, WK 12***
this is where the emotion in sports comes out. if they go for two after the first td and miss then the team would be deflated and might not have gotten the second td.
waiting gives the team much needed hope and momentum.

Re: **Official NFL Thanksgiving Day Games Thread, WK 12***
Why aren't they going for 2 right now? I just don't get it. Especially with the fact that they could've gotten the ball on the 1 yard line with the offsides penalty.

Re: **Official NFL Thanksgiving Day Games Thread, WK 12***
I think there was a little bit of merit going for it right there (before the penalty)...GB just got run over on the TD drive, get the 2 then while they are shellshocked. Maybe, maybe maybe even more consideration should have been given after the half the distance penalty on the PAT attempt.

No, they could have taken the penalty and went for 2 from helf the distance.

Dammit, somebody reminded the Packers that they're good at passing the ball.
