The reason that he sent the FG team on w/ 14 seconds left was b/c the coaches thought that the ref's would run off 10 seconds b/c of the penalty. It turns out they didn't run off the 10 seconds b/c of the False start which of course left 14 seconds. So...they really thought there would be only 4 seconds left therefore just allowing time enough to kick a FG. When Reid called time out they realized that there was time to try one more pass into the endzone....thank god.
