Gota go for the touchdown if it's a second down. That gives you two shots to the endzone.. runs off maybe 10 seconds.

It's easier to score from the 10 and then try to get an onside kick and get a few yards to get in field goal range than it is to just kick a field goal and then have to get an onside and drive down the field for a TD



Only go for the FG if it's 4th down

I would be going for it on 4th down from the 10.

What are the chances of getting that field position again? Very slim.

You are going to have to score a touchdown no matter what.

Might as well go for it when you are only 10 yards out instead of throwing hail marys after the onside kick and praying for a miracle.
