this is absurd

there is a lot of academic/economic analysis in this area

in that instance last night, what is 25 yards (which was great considering what typically happens) compared to a shot to end the game?

25 yards with no TO and them having to score a TD? kinda big...even bigger if they only needed a FG

the fact that if we went for it and not got it, instead of them running a hail mary that falls 5 yards short of the endzone they are running an actual play to end the game at about the 25 yard line?

It's roughly 30% further they have to move the ball?

Shot to end the game was a 4th and 7 at their 35. What is the percentage chance of converting that play and winning? How much greater is that percentage than punting and forcing a team to drive 80 or more yards with no timeouts in 1:30?
