What is the probability of Tynes missing the field goal?
What is the probability of Brady being able to score a touchdown with a timeout in hand and just under a minute to play?

My numbers are under 2% for a missed kick and over 10% for a Brady-led touchdown.

If you think that the probability of a missed kick is greater than the probability of a subsequent New England touchdown, then Bradshaw scoring is the right call. You’d have to really tweak the numbers to get there though.

Tynes almost missed the two field goals-both under forty yards-so missing the chip shot was not out of the realm of possibility.

He is last on the depth chart when I'm looking for a Giants player to seal a game.
