How is it hard to fault him for that decision? It's pretty damn easy. The chances of either A) forcing a fumble while SF is focused on protecting the ball, B) Hoping for a missed or blocked chip shot FG, and C) Completing a hail mary with 20 seconds left all added together are ASTRONOMICALLY lower than Russell Wilson leading a TD drive for the win down 6 with 2:30 left on the clock.
I agree with you 100% Well said.
I can also understand the other side and how it could effect the players negatively if he told them to give up a score to their hated rivals. Strategy says let them score, but the fallout could have had greater negative consequences in not only this game but in future games.
