If you are behind and even have the remotest chance, you don't stop fighting.
I wouldn't have taken Boldin out.
Honestly, even if I didn't think there was any chance, after the two-point conversion I would have come out fighting simply because it meant that the Jets didn't think it was over if they needed those points that bad.
Redlemon: the reason the Giants won the next time in the Super Bowl wasn't any emotional high, but because they already knew the weaknesses of New England (specifically hitting the offensive line and Tom Brady repeatedly and relentlessly). The close game in Week 17 gave them that knowledge.
