The bizarre coaching decision that might have cost the Packers a Super Bowl

Personally with the playoff overtime rules meaning your fate is virtually determined by a coin toss (lose that and you're basically toast barring a monumental stuff up or have Matt Hasselbeck opening his gob), I'd much rather take my chances with winning in regulation.

If they went for it though and missed, Tampa would've started their drive on their own 8 yard line and Green Bay would've still had all their timeouts and 2 minute warning. The only gain from taking the field goal was that if they did happen to get the ball back, a TD would've won the game in regular time and they wouldn't have to worry about a 2 point conversion to force overtime. With Rodgers there, surely you roll the dice and go for it on 4th down...

Wouldn’t you rely on your MVP QB rather than your D against the GOAT?

I can understand the thinking with 3 timeouts and the 2 minute warning to stop the clock and hope the defence can force a three and out or a turnover. It's just that their D came up short.

Yep, an absolute WTF moment. Still, they had 3 shots at it from 8 yards.
