Down 3, 1:00 left, 1 timeout, 4th & 1.

Do you kick the 56 yarder or do you go for the conversion.

Obviously if the previous 5 attempts were bad or not far enough, you know the choice is to go 4th & 1.

Better to know or test in a game in your favor than the first attempt be one in that scenario.

he had the leg on it... it was just wide

was it a small chance FG? sure

but I'd be more against the call if he had come up short

let's appreciate the fact that we have a kicker who has the leg from 55+ while facing a cross wind (Garic said there was a slight breeze blowing across the field from the Panthers sideline to the Saints sideline right before the kick)
