Question for the Forum

In the Jags game; if the TE had caught the TD at the end of the game, would you have wanted the Saints to go for the 2-point conversion or go to OT?

Personally I would have wanted them to go for the win.

Good question. Based on our red zone stats hell no. Then again it may be the type of challenge the offense needed in order to galvanize them. Put the win or loss squarely on their shoulders. I doubt the Jags would be on their toes as they probably wouldn't have expected us to be so aggressive.

I want to go for 2 if I get to call the play not Pete!

I think an option play with with Taysom and Kamara would be unstoppable!

With our current high powered, efficient, red zone offense the fan in me says I probably would have like to have gone for it 😝😝😝😝 but the coach in me would have probably said, how in the hell did we just score? And settle for OT. All kidding aside…..shoulda woulda coulda didn’t matter.

Allen doesn't have the stones to call that play. He doesn't have the offensive line either.

Rugs, good call out here.

Emory (former player for USL) did a breakdown last week with the Oline woes and he used the 4th and short (Bears game) as reference. I'm paraphrasing here but outside of McKoy & Ramz, collectively we are not very strong up front.

No consistent push.

Maybe that's part of the reason we are avg just under 3.6 ypc?
