Why are we not talking about the Ravens missing their chance to ice the game?

Yes, it's been waaaaaaaaaay too long, but I finally got pissed enough at bad coaching to post something.  I've penned several posts, but they just never made it to the interweb.  Yes, my bad.

Now I humbly submit the ravings of someone who pays too much attention to sports...
With 4:47 to play, Ray Rice scored a TD to put the Baltimore Ravens up 27-20.  At this point they were up by a TD and a PAT.  Had the Ravens gone for 2 and succeeded, they would have been up by two scores (9 points), but instead of doing this they did the "logical" thing and kicked the PAT, leaving them up by a TD and two point conversion.  Yes, now we know that Washington got the necessary TD and two point conversion to send the game to overtime, but even if Baltimore had gone for two and failed, they would have been up by 7 points and if Washington had indeed gone on to score a TD bringing their total to 26, Shannahan probably would have gone for the safe call and kicked the PAT to tie the game instead of going for the two point conversion to win the game (or potentially lose the game) outright in regulation.

Ravens missed an opportunity to win the game outright and send the Skins' fans home early.....who knows....RG3 may not have been injured....yes, butterfly effect.

Funny thing is, Cam Cameron was fired today as Offensive Coordinator for the Ravens.  Had the Ravens gone for two and succeeded, the chances of them winning yesterday would have been close to 100% and Cameron would probably still be employed by Baltimore.
