Jeff,
You make a good point, but the major element is time and alot of "if's"! By the way, your alliance was awesome and you all did a great job, congrats.
To ward off the "tug o war" double goal handlers, the Single goal grabbers must be faster to the goal and also more manueverable with it once it has it - two minutes is an eternity when a relentless slower machine is uninhibited in its progress. I suppose the partners could block it and just give up on trying to keep the other team from taking 2 - you can't loose 3 unless you are pretty sure that you can block it into your scoring zone.
The key to keeping out of trouble in the first place is to beat the other team to the goals, latch and turn (rotate away from the other goal) at the same time - so the other team doesn't get the goal practically brought to them. At least you have to make them work to catch it -
I can't wait to see 2 very fast double goal grabbers smash head long into the goals at the same time and the same opening - now that may lead to some interesting results!
