BTW, Slye's miss was pretty bad. Could have lost us the game. Had he made it, we would have been up 15-7 and put even more pressure on the Bears.

I was watching with Nextgen stats last night. They gave Slye a 53% chance of making it, basically a coin toss, and the recommendation was to go for it on 4th and 4. Making a 4th and 4 is challenging but with time that was left even if you turn it over you run more time off the clock and it is better defensive field position. I don't knock the FG attempt though going up 8 would have been big.
