The Tampa Bay Buccaneers' decision to kick an extra point instead of going for a two-point conversion in overtime sparked controversy. Head coach Todd Bowles explained that the team wanted to go into overtime, citing wet conditions on the field as a factor. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid was asked if he was surprised by the Bucs' decision and replied, "No, but I'm glad they didn't." ESPN's Seth Walder reported that had the Bucs gone for two, their win probability would have been 41.2%, while kicking the extra point gave them a 42.8% chance of winning.
