Everyone who thinks we should have run one more play believe the play would have been executed as drawn on the chalk board but the fact is there was one sure shot, just one sure shot, at winning the game. Every other option had flaws. We could have been sacked, could have been tackled in bounds, could have jumped off sides, could have had in injury time out and run off the rest of the clock, could have missed an assignment and lost yardage, etc, etc.

 

It was the right call. According to Lageman he makes 62% of his kicks beyond 50 yards. When you have one sure shot at winning or gamble with a bunch of rookies that you get a closer shot or none at all, you take it at 12 seconds.
