Most NFL Coaches Lack Adjustments

I realize that most of these NFL coaches have marginal IQs and fuzzy math skills....but hey, they're making up to 7 figures and I'm trying to figure them out. Rule changes make it a slightly different game. That requires thinking "out of the box". Today's example situation:
Indy Colts rally with a TD @1:17 left to go up 26-22. Immediately Stanford alum Luck wags 2 fingers to signal going for 2pts...WRONG. Go for one?....WRONG. Take a knee= BEST CHOICE.

Yes lily that's the point.
OTimer, the clock is irrelevant on the PATs.
Benny, why do you disagree?
Jm, Good strategy if ahead or tied.
StevieY, while you're here any opinion?
Exactly
My thinking too. The chances of them missing the PAT have to be much, much higher than the chances of them returning your try for 2 and then hitting a FG to win it. I can see that logic with the old PAT rules, but with the new rules, I'd consider going for 2 a no-brainer (though you might be more conservative with the play call).
