re: Probably discussed....play calling in 4th quarter

We only needed like 5 yards to be in comfortable field goal range, and we passed 3 times,

therein lies the answer to your question.

Playcalling would suggest they thought we needed more than 5yds to be in 'comfortable' range.

However, that was not the play selection. That was a 7 play drive:
Rush, 1yd
Rush, 4yd
pass, 5yd (3rd & 5)
rush, 7yd
rush, 0yd
scramble, 2yd
FG- 42 yd

honestly, I was worried about the 42yd FG. I wanted them to pass more and get more comfortable yardage. AU was betting we didn't want to risk an turnover and was stacking the line, but spread out because of the jet sweep.

The next FG to make it 23-27 was 3 rushes and a FG

ETA: not sure if I'm screwed up, or you are but either way I think the series you are referring to is the series prior to that where we punted. I'm referring to the one where we were down by two, and then went up by 1. Sorry for the confusion, if I am causing it.
