That’s an insane strategy to me. Playing for the 3rd possession?


You aren't playing for the 3rd possession; you are playing the odds on the outcomes of the first two possessions to determine the value of 2nd possession versus 3rd; having the 3rd possession is more valuable because of the transition to true Sudden Death.

That's why its the right decision, because its what the odds dictate.

I feel like it’s debatable what strategy to go with.

I can make an argument either way

Yeah, you are.

KC just showed how valuable knowing what you need to do can be. They called every play as if they had 4 plays because they did - until the 35 or so.
