The default comes from this chart:

I'm not quite sure exactly why down by 11 should be go for two, I think it's come up before and was the reason you now have control over it.

I think the logic is that making the 2 puts you in position to tie with a field goal (statistically easier to do than a TD just from field position).

that's three possessions though if you are going to tie on only FGs. I think it's probably more that it puts you in a position to win with a TD and a FG. I think this because it also says to go for 2 when only trailing by 1.

I think the logic is that if you were down 11, and you get the TD, making the 2 puts you in position to tie with a field goal (statistically easier to do than a TD just from field position).

The other reason is that in a close game in the fourth quarter there is no difference being down 5 points as opposed to 4 points. Either way you need a TD to win. So you're statistically better off going for 2 to reduce the score to 3.

I think some of us are interpreting the chart differently. If I understand it right, it's when the 6 points from the TD put you down by that many points, in this case, 11, not if you were down by 11 before the TD.

No reason to go for two down 11. I have never seen a team go for it and probably never will

It means after you score a TD and your down by ....?.. that's what box your checking
Right?

Yes, it's the score when you are making the decision - so the 6 points for the TD are included in the calculation.

GG chinaski....... This one was a lot more defense oriented than our game earlier this season! Like I said earlier, I see the glimmer in my players eyes, like they are ready to turn the corner and start winning some games again!
