Why the Cowboys Should Have Gone for it on 4th Down...

Alright, my pick didn't stand as the Cowboys choked to the normally choke-team known as the Seahawks. Obviously, the Cowboy should have gone for the 1st down on 4 and inches since they failed the field goal attempt but here are some other reasons to go with that.

* 4th and inches from the 1 and you need inches to get a 1st down at the half yard line and then get 4 chances to punch in a touchdown and thus, kill more clock.
* Seattle has a very strong offense and with a minute and twenty seconds to go, that is too much time for them and chances are, they would have scored.
* The Seahawks probably have the second best kicker in the game (behind Adam Vinitari) and if I am the Cowboys and the game is down to that guy's foot, I'm yelling, "Oh FUCK"!
* Even if you fail the attempt, you pin them at the one and bring a monster goal line package and try to get a safety.

Let's see how my other picks do today...
