Def on the 12th man and extra point shenanigans but I still say NFL OT rules blow

Just kick the damn extra point...

Factory of sadness.

ssomeone give Johnny a beer and someone give our HC a kick in the ass

the extra point and 12 men on the field will not be forgotten and I think the heat would just be too much

I had already forgotten it. This was incredibly routine, as Browns performances go.

If the chart said go for 2 it is what it is. Not the coaches fault that a guy didn't get off the field for the 12 men, but they ended up with a pick the next play anyway so it worked out better. Pet isn't getting fired for this. Should Hairball get fired for how that game ended yesterday? Only complaint I have is not running north/south in OT.

wait until next year

Sometimes you can't let the chart outsmart you. You're an underdog at home, have a young kicker on a hot streak going 12/12 and you go for two against the NFL's best defense.

Just dumb.

Appalling by Pettine to not kick the extra point. And he is the least appalling (to me) of the Owner/GM/Coach setup we have.

Another week, another bit of sports penance for being so lucky to be an OSU alum.

Honestly I'm surprised good offensive teams like the Pats don't go for it every single time. If you can make 2/3 you are ahead of the game.

Broncos did all they could to hand us the game, just wouldn't take it. Going for 2 was unexcusable.

While I agree with you regarding going for 2 points,, I also think that the offensive play calling was pretty bad when we got down to about the 10yard line during regulation and also the play calling after Mingo's interception.

Yes, we had many opportunities to win that

NFL historical conversion rate is like 45% fwiw.
