You have to consider the kicks the coaches didn't trust him to even attempt. He has only attempted 2 kicks over 50 with his long being 52. Most teams will attempt a 54 yard field goal on 4th down but the Jags are forced to go for it. Patterson is not bad but could be better.

A lot of times I see this as more confidence in the QB's ability to get the couple a yards than it is lack of faith in the kicker's range. We know Doug is a analytics guy and a gambler, so....4th and 2 from the 37, you get these potential outcomes:

go for it, get it: drive continues inside the 35, potential to score 6, or make the kick easier with a few gains
go for it, fail: turnover where the ball is downed
kick, get it: 3 points
kick, miss: turnover spotted at the 44.

seems to me like go for it is the lowest risk with greatest reward if time allows play to carry on and your offense has been moving.
