If the field goal that they kicked would have made it a 3-point game, then it would have been the right call. But the field goal made it a 5-point game...which necessitated another touchdown anyway. What were the chances that they would stop Brady cold, and then score a touchdown themselves, with seconds left and no timeouts? Somewhere between slim and none, IMO. You are first and goal on the 8-yard line...and you need 8 points to tie the game. If this isn't a 4-down situation, then...why do you keep throwing the ball down there? Mix in a running play and try to get inside the 5. It would have made the 4-down decision much easier to make.
A dumb series all the way around...as far as I am concerned.
