Maybe because of the hit in revenue cus of the empty stadiums. Vegas is paying teams.
who knows
Your odds of winning the game go up marginally going for 2. It’s just a fact. It’s unconventional but it’s not wrong. There are reasons outside of that. If they get it and miraculously score a td they win with a kick and can avoid OT with a vastly superior team. The downside is going for another two point conversion where you make it roughly 50% of the time.

They aren’t relying on a deflected jump ball and a 2 point conversion with seconds left if a game is “fixed”.....Eagles and Doug go for 2 all the time, if you don’t factor shit like that into your capping you’re doing it wrong

Take your little $25 and go brag to your buddies at work how much you wonand go to bed it’s past your bedtime you don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about there was no reason to go for two you can’t tell me they don’t know what the spread is bullshit I’ve seen it happen many times sure that was a lucky catch but it happened so now they said fuck it let them go for two

OK, here is the math: you need 2 TDs and have 100% on PAT (which is quite generous) and about 50 % on 2PA.
Strategy 1: you kick two PATs and go to OT. Your chances of winning the game is whatever your chances of winning OT are.
Strategy 2: you go for 2 on the first one. If you convert (50%) you obviously kick the second, and if you dont convert you obviously try again for 2 after the 2nd TD. Your chances to win the game sum up as follows:
a.) convert 1st, kick 2nd: that happens 50% of the time and you win 100 % of this scenarios: 0.5 wins
b.) you dont convert both: that happens 25% of the time and you win 0% in these cases: 0 wins
c.) you dont convert on 1st and convert on 2nd: that happens 25% of the time and you win with your OT-win probability. If both teams are evenly strong, thats another .125 wins.
The only time you should NOT follow the 2nd strategy, is if you deem yourself to be an overwhelming favourite in OT. The breakeven point is about 65%. I guess you do not find a 2:1 OT-win-ratio very often in the NFL. So, maybe KC should kick it against the Jets, but thats about it.
Just accept that you clashed with mother nature and lost. Make your peace with it.

You can use that strategy if there was actually time left on the clock. There was 12 seconds left on the clock. Purposely going for two, is just to piss people off.

The handwriting was on the wall when Seahawks didn't even try to get a 1st down in their last 2 possessions. The pregame show suckered everybody in.

@dustmiester
Agree on every point. Same shit happen on the KC Bucs game. How did they manage to cover half a point in the last seconds of the game. Just like my dad told me, you’re not betting on the football game you’re betting with or against Vegas.

How come they couldn't do that since the first Qtr. they would probably have 40pts. by then. It's strange the losing team only starts playing during the last 5 minutes of the game on some rigged sh.t.

If they regain the onside kick, the clock is stopped, isnt it? They would have had another shot then...

That Hail Mary was a fix. Even if the first Hail Mary didn't work, they had enough time to try two more Hail Mary's as long as all Seattle defenders knew they were not supposed to pick it off.

not counting the final kneel down, they took 4:44 off the clock with 2 first downs on their 2nd from last possession and their last possession they got the ball with 2:15 left and already in short FG range and played it like any team up 11 there would.

If it was fixed why would the refs call the phantom PI on Maddox with 6 minutes left and then holding on the Eagles on the second to last drive?
Why Pedersen went for 2 is beyond words as was him going for fourth and 2 at own 45 down only 8 and not kicking a fg down 11 on fourth and 4
he's just an idiot coach in general. sometimes goes for two up 6-0 after a TD like the SNF San Fran game
Comical a buffoon like that won a super bowl

The refs did miss the intentional grounding on Wentz tho in first half. Yeah he was outside the pocket but regardless you have to throw it past the Line of Scrimmage
Insane they missed that call
U can't fix the hail mary deflection tho... Seattle guys were going for ball was just a lucky ball. The original Philly WR should have caught it on the fly great positioning

they also called Wentz in the grasp and blew the play dead when he was clearly free a couple plays before that put the eagles in 2nd and long
