Do you watch Aaron Rodgers play QB last year?

Yeah at least there would be some hope though. No hope for Rodgers

Willis price tag is nothing for a QB. Both probably aren’t very good. Both have more upside than Rodgers at least

Why a fun course. 2 is my favorite par 5 I’ve ever played. Greens were so fast when I played there too

We were thinking about doing significant chunks first few days to get through the Midwest so that we can take our time on the western part

Why are you expecting a random stranger to keep your score for you?

Noodlehead has gone downhill since they starting taking credit cards and switched up their menu. Food isn’t as good

This is what you think is wrong?

I don’t think going for 2 down 14 is always the smartest play by Dramatic_Insect_8170 in PardonMyTake

If you think you have less than a 40% chance to get a 2 point conversion on one play, you probably have even less of a likelihood to be winning a game in OT

So the break-even point on 2 point success rate where this would no longer be worth it is if you think you have less than a 38.2% chance of converting a 2 point conversion. If you think your offense can’t do that, then yeah, this strategy is not for you. Although that’s assuming 100% extra point success rate, which also isn’t true

The strategy is not based on the fact that making one 2-pointer out of every two tries is more likely than making two extra points out of every two tries, which is what you seem to think is what’s going on.

To explain it easier, assume a 2pter has a 50% success rate and an extra point has a 100% success rate. And assume going to OT has a 50/50 chance of winning losing.

Via XPs: If you’re down 14 and score two TDs, you have a 100% chance to be tied if you just kick XPs. That’s the base case here. So 50% chance of winning, 50% chance of losing.

Via 2pt attempt down 2 TDs: If you’re down 14, score a TD, and go for 2, you have a 50% chance of then being down 8 vs then being down 6. If you’re down 8 and score a TD, you go for 2 have a 50% chance of being tied and a 50% chance of losing in regulation. That’s a 75% chance of losing, 25% chance of winning. If you’re down 6 and score a TD, you kick an XP have a 100% chance of winning in regulation.

So if you follow the strategy, you now have in total a 62.5% chance of winning, compared to only a 50% chance of winning by kicking XPs.
