On 4th and 5 with about 6:30 remaining in the 4th quarter. I was screaming that we have to go for it. There was not enough time to punt the ball and score 10 more points. I knew our defense was not going to get a 3 and out and get us the ball back right away and sure enough they didn't and they let the Cowboys run the clock down to about a minute and the game was over.
There was no downside to going for it on 4th down. Even if we didn't get it lets say the Cowboys get a couple of first downs and kick a FG its still a 2 possession game. Now even if we had gone for it and got it we still probably would not have won but to punt the ball in that situation made absolutely no sense.
