that would sway it the other way and I never mentioned game flow, that was you.
But none of that matters..the only thing that matters is FGs, even from extra point distance, are not guaranteed and there is NO math that makes 3 unguaranteed points greater than 6 guaranteed points.
I'll say it again since it's not sinking in...taking sure points off the board when trailing for the hope of future points is the surest way to lose games.
