Why Chip Kelly and the Eagles May Not Attempt Many Two-Point Conversions

The Philadelphia Eagles attempted but failed to change the NFL rule and make two-point conversions easier by performing them at the one-yard line. However, even before we knew the fate of their proposed rule, rumors have been circulating wild that the Eagles would be planning many two-point attempts due to the signing of quarterback Tim Tebow.

This really may not be the case in 2015.

Last season, the Eagles scored 54 touchdowns and their kicker Cody Parkey made all 54 extra point kicks. This obviously means that the team never once attempted a two-point conversion. During the 2013 season which was Kelly’s first as an NFL coach, the Eagles only made three of eight two-point attempts.
