I didn't listen to the game because it was too noisy, so if the play by play guys covered this, just ignore please.
Isn't there a general rule that you should not start going for 2 unless you're fairly sure the other team is all done scoring?
Give Carolina the 2 extra points, and NE probably just takes 1 instead of 2 on its last TD.
Then when Car. scores its last TD it is up 1 before any extra point, so going for 2 then would mean the last FG was to tie.
If NE had still gone for 2 before, Car. would still be up 1 after the last Extra point, and would not have simply been hoping for OT. I know the final FG ended that anyway, but still.
I'm not saying this as Monday Quarterbacking, I think it is a general rule not to do 2 point, and this game showed why.
