He is right you have no choice you have to go for the PAT
Yes. I've seen games where a team scored a go-ahead TD to win the game as time expired and the teams left the field, but the officials made the teams come back out for a PAT attempt. I think the rationale in the NFL is that the point could play a role in tiebreaker situations at the end of the season.
There is one exception, though: In overtime in the NFL, if a team scores a touchdown, the game is over, and no extra point is attempted. That's because of the nature of the NFL's sudden-death system, which of course states that the first team to score wins. So once a team scores, that's it by definition. Game over. Under the sudden-death rules, it would be impossible to add any more points.
ANSWER
A team may deline the opportunity to convert a touchdown if the Head Coach specifically informs the Referee that he wishes to do so. Otherwise, PAT will be assumed.
After every touchdown it is indeed mandatory to go for at least one extra point.
Exception: In high school and college, after 3 overtimes both teams are required to go for 2, and not the 1 point point try. The reason is that the 2 point conversion is much harder to score on, and since the game is already deep into the overtime attempts, this rule 'forces' the game to end sooner.
yes it should be mandatory because than when they go to grade 1 they kind of have a head start to the alphabet and counting
I would go for the extra .4 ghz.
