One touchdown to get back into the game, then one failed two-point conversion to lose it. Cleveland fans won't forget this one in a hurry.
The Browns lost 23–22 to New Orleans in overtime after Harold Fannin Jr. hauled in a 39-yard touchdown. Rather than settle for another chance, Todd Monken decided to go for the win immediately.
I understand the thinking. Give yourself one shot instead of letting the Saints have another possession. But when it fails, you know the second-guessing is coming.
Would you have made the same call as Monken, or taken your chances on another possession?
