The "clock it" play being a key example. IMO the last pass by Jefferson was suppose to be the last play of the game and go in the endzone. No plans were made for it not to be and probably a decent assumption they wouldn't have enough time to run another play after a very deep pass down field.

Exactly. And that is my problem with the whole senario. Why does it need to be the last play? Take the timeout. If you are down in the game and are not going to try a field goal, the point is to extend the game not shorten it.
