They are 2/4 going for it

Led to 14 points

If they kick all 4 FGs(and make every single one) it’s 12 points

If they kick two FGs prior to the 4th down that Speights broke up, it is 17-16 and all they’d have had to do on that 4th down was kick a FG to be up 19-17.

It looks like it will have worked out for them tonight but they were very fortunate.

Collingsworth getting hard to listen to. Williams is the greatest QB of all time according to him.

He hasn’t said anything like that.

No You can't just pick and choose. If you're going to say that, then you have to also remove the 7 points they got from the first TD by going for it on 4th. So it would have been 17-9 prior to the Speights play and they would still need a TD and a two pt conv to boot

I absolutely can pick and choose. Not all 4th downs are created equal.
