    Or should McDermott have told his team not to score so fast? On 2nd down Allen ran in for the TD. They had 3 plays to get in at that point. Does it make sense to tell your guy to fall down at the one to burn clock or Denver timeouts?

    Absolutely that would have been the thing to do. You control the clock, and keep the other team from coming back to beat you. So many people just don't understand this concept, but I'm glad you do. an_cheers

    No. TDs are not guaranteed. Only kneel if kicking FG was going give them the lead. Absolutely they should score TD as quick as possible.

    Too much time and 2 timeouts for it to matter much.   They had 30-40 seconds to spare.

    You’re probably right but still the result is the same if you don’t score or if you give the ball back with that much time. That’s what I’m thinking if I’m the coach anyway.

     They were losing . Nothing is guaranteed at that time. They had to score when it’s there.

    You don't waste a down to slow the clock, you score when you have a chance.

    on that last 3rd down. Why didn't they just spread out and throw the ball out of bounce to stop the clock instead of Wilson kneeling and rushing for a field goal? Seemed fishy to begin with.
