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.

You've got one job to do! BS!!! Everyone misses sometime. It's like the great QB's they miss just not very often. If you get a base hit every third down at bat you're doing great in baseball and they get paid more. Lutz was a freaking gift from Harbaugh that will benefit us for years. We got darn lucky but he still needed training and we had to bring in a specialist to get him right.

I feel bad for kickers. But at least in football they kick from the middle of the field. In rugby you have to kick from the side lines on a consistent basis. Wherever you crossed the plane of the goal line then you come straight back from there.

Scott Norwood: Despite his accomplishments, he is best known for missing a game-winning field goal attempt at the end of Super Bowl XXV.
