Earlier Trevor Lawrence led the Jaguars to what would be a game tying TD but the HC went for the win and they converted. Then with little time left the Ravens came to the get enough yardage to have a try for a record setting 67 yard FG Tucker. It fell a yard short.

Just now Justin Herbert did the same and they went for the two point conversion to win the game.

Exciting games.
"There is a greater purpose...that purpose is team. Winning, losing, playing hard, playing well, doing it for each other, winning the right way, winning the right way is a very important thing to me... Championships are won by teams who love one another, who respect one another, and play for and support one another."

More pain in the Valley of the Sun. Gutsy call to go for two by SD!

Maybe even more stunning was watching the Raiders' Jacobs blast through the open hole in Seattle's secondary for a walk-off 85 yards TD run to take the game in overtime. A pandemonium moment for certain!

Peace!

It took a long time but finally coaches are starting to understand that gaining 2 yards for the win is almost always more beneficial than going for the tie and playing for OT.

Daboll did it in week 1 against Tennessee.  It makes a lot of sense with OT being so random and there being the chance you never get the ball in OT.

Now watch the league changes the overtime rules to sneak in more advertising space.

Ed: Maybe they can add 2 or 3 MORE playoff spots in each conference to improve flagging interest. /sarcasm/
If Jeff Hostetler could do it, Daniel Jones can do it !!!
