Jeff Howe Explains Why The Raiders Shouldn’t Have Gone For Two Points
During a crucial moment in the fourth quarter of Monday night’s game between the Las Vegas Raiders and Kansas City Chiefs, Derek Carr hit Davante Adams in stride for an electrifying, game-tying 48-yard touchdown with four minutes to play.
Well, it should have been a game-tying touchdown, but that’s not exactly how things played out.
Instead of tying things up at 30-30, Las Vegas opted to go for two and the lead but ultimately failed as the Chiefs escaped with a narrow one-point victory to send the Raiders to a 1-4 start to the season.
The Athletic’s Jeff Howe joined Cattles & Ramie this week to break down Las Vegas’ decision to go for two and much more as we move into Week 6 of the NFL season.
