I agree. TD ends it. If you fail, 99 yards to go up three isn't much worse than 75-80 yards to go down six.


To be fair, they'd probably settle for a FG if they're down 3, so they'd only need to go 80 yards and not the full 99

When they settle for the FG, you don't lose.
Kicking the FG and going up 6 forces them to go all out to beat you.

Just an all around dumb decision to not run on 3rd down, and not going for it on 4th.
