And Brees like accuracy

That was pretty cutthroat of Payton to call him out like that by going for 2.
It’s one thing to call out another teams offense or defense but I have never heard of a coach icing a kicker for an EXTRA POINT that far in advance. He went for two knowing that kicker would be sweating the tying extra point.

Uh yeah, that's totally not the reason he went for two. Guido is correct on this one. And I'll take the win, but feel terrible for this kid.
