Let's assume the Bucs get the ball on the 25. So you're essentially trying to stop the Bucs from getting 45-50 yards to get a decent shot at a FG.By electing to kick the FG, all the Bucs need is to get 20 yards (or two first downs) and the game is over.It's more than a significant difference.Also, even if the Packers don't convert on the 4th down play, the Bucs get the ball on the 8 yard line. Big field position difference. Would have likely resulted in them being more conservative as well. Either way you need a touchdown.Your suggestion is a loser's mentality. The option which gives you the better chance to win the game (in my humble estimation) would have been to go for it on 4th and goal.</blockquote>
