[QUOTE="Root4GT, post: 996629, member: 5618"] That is a logical conclusion. On the other hand it is not how the Lions generally operated this year. While I would have gone for the FG, it's no guarantee as the NFL average from that distance is around 65% and the Lions kicker was only with the team the last 5 or so games and had not kicked any FGs of 50 yards. My bigger issue was on 3rd down with a minute left on the SF 2 yard line going with a running play. If unsuccessful, as it was, then it forces a TO which means even if you score a TD on 4th down, LIons did, you then have to try an onsides kick. In the NFL only 2 of 42 onsides kicks were successful this year. The risk way outweighs the reward trying a running play in that situation. [/QUOTE]
