Re: NFL Conference Championship Weekend
[QUOTE=AnonEmouse;1275366]The counter argument is twofold. They had to score a TD at least once (arguably twice if you count the 2 pointer). The FG mean that they a) had to get the ball back quickly to leave time on the clock and b) have halfway decent field position to be able to get that TD in the time available.
Go for it on 4th and fail? TB are stuck inside their own 10 and unlikely to take chances passing for a 1st down. If GB stop them there, then they likely get the ball back in very good field position. And if they don't stop them then it's a moot point anyway.
We know how it went after the FG anyway, but even had they stopped them getting the 1st down, they'd have been getting the ball back likely inside their own 20 with less than 1 min. to cover that distance.
You've got Aaron Rodgers and Devontae Adams on the field. Of course you go on 4th down. Unless you don't trust your HOF worthy QB...[/QUOTE]
