Always defer. Scoring last in the half and then opening the second half with a score is a powerful, powerful weapon.
It broke the Texans. They still had hope coming out of the locker at 28-24...but Patrick marched right down the field and put the stake in their heart. [Reply]

Then we can double dip at the end of half and beginning of 3rd and really put the heat on em.

And on the chance that you don’t score? They now get the ball in the second half.
If you get the ball in the second half and you’re down....it gives you a chance to get back into it. If you get the ball in the second half and you’re up...it gives you a chance to extend your lead. [Reply]

We should defer at home... The fans are amped up at kick-off to start the game, and the stands are 50% full to start the second half... [Reply]
