How many times does it have to be explained why it is better to go for 2 in that situation?
It ended up not mattering because the Giants team is pathetic and it goes all the way up to terrible ownership who relies more on a reputation of being classy in a traditional sense than of being a winner and on the cutting edge.
But it is ridiculous that in this day and age, and with the XP pushed back to 37 yards, that Shurmur would opt to kick there.
Bills then took six minutes for their drive and scored with six minutes remaining.
You may still want to argue the point, but there are generalized stats and particular circumstances and player abilities.
I wouldn't kill PS for that call, myself.
