Say you're at the 35. Long FG versus punt versus go. Go is clearly right. Punt is out, since it probably nets only 15-25 yards. Long FG has same or reduced chance of sealing the win, but runs risk of being blocked or missed, with 7-yard debit on field position. Plus, the FG gives the Colts the ball back, with an opportunity to score and then onside kick, hence M J-D taking a knee.
