TD late in the game to go up 7 points. Go for two instead of kicking the xp. So instead of "making them go for two of they score a TD," you go for the win right there. If you don't get it, you're still up 7. This is a smart gamble IMO.

Second one is more situational but when the Texans decided to kick the FG to force the Pats to score a TD, you just knew Brady would March down and score a TD. If a guy like Brady or Rodgers is the other's team QB, I'm going for it on 4th there (it was 4th and fairly short, I think). I'm not giving those guys a chance to carve me up.


Final one. Opposing team is in hurry up and driving, my D is visibly gassed. More often than not, the D doesn't call a TO to let the guys rushing on every down recuperate because they want to preserve a TO and don't want to give the offense a chance at drawing something good. We'll sometimes it's better to call that TO on D.
