The only way to bypass a PAT is to go for a two-point conversion. Even if you score a touchdown as time expires, you are required to attempt the PAT by rule. Of course, you could always take a knee.
If you are going for a two-point conversion and you have a mobile quarterback, I recommend moving him out of the pocket so that he has the option to throw for it or run it.
In overtime however, the game is over as soon as you score a touchdown - no PAT allowed.
I believe that it was last year when the fans charged onto the field in New England after the winning TD was scored on the last play of the game. The team had to come back out onto the field about 20 minutes later to attempt the PAT.
I have always wanted to be one of those jackasses who provides absolutely no useful information.
