What better, 4 penalties, a sack and a fumble in 8 plays or converting on 3rd & 47?

I knew after that turn of events, that a conversion from 3rd and 50 was inevitable.

Jim needs to copy the score normalization code over to penalties.

The fumble after the conversion was priceless.

That is funny. Weirdly enough I do remember watching a college game where a team converted a 3rd and about 40. They ran a draw, and the guy broke away for about 50.
