[QUOTE="adambr2, post: 1077980, member: 7277"] IMO, “take the points” is far too simplified of an approach in this day and age of analytics. There are times when it’s the correct approach of course … but coaches are much more data driven than they once were. For example, I can’t see very many instances where kicking a FG inside your opponents’ 3 yard line is ever a good idea. The overlooked part of going for it is that if you fail here, your opponent gets the ball on their own 1 or 2. That’s an awfully nice consolation prize and gives you a great chance to get the ball back for another possible drive. Versus only adding 3 points and your opponent is going to get it on their own 30-35 instead. [/QUOTE]
