[QUOTE="JorgeJonas, post: 159725, member: 2171"] Going for two should be the default position, except for times where we score in the final minute or so and a tie would prolong the game or where a false start or procedure penalty backs up the kick to the seven yard line. I believe the math has been done on this several times (and I'll try to find the link), but the point expectancy goes up if you go for two every time. It's really no different than bunting in baseball - bunting has been shown to decrease the run expectancy, but in certain circumstances it can increase the likelihood of scoring a single run.
