re: There is absolutely no reason you don't kick the field goal with :30 left

So would you rather get FG and have 30 seconds to drive 50 yards & score 'or score a TD and have 20 seconds to go 20 yards to get in FG range.

Except that's not the correct way to look at it since that's never what happens. The correct way is, would you rather kick the quick fg, have 50 seconds left needing a td, or run the clock down going for td, leaving 5 or 10 seconds to get onside kick and fg? This was terrible coaching.
