And I don't know that Taysom would have been hit. I don't know if he would have thrown a pic... I don't know if he would have busted it for 80 yards.
Your point that we gave up on the drive is a valid one, I just don't see it as a mistake to be conservative when you are deep in your own territory and 3rd and forever. I think that was one of the main factors in the decision is that we are on our own 18 and any mistakes made are much worse at that point.
I obviously thought it was the right call given the situation.
