    I did not understand the choice of a field goal on 3rd down but would like to. I see two scenarios!
    A. 40 seconds and you have 2 tries to go 10 yards for a touchdown

    Then onside kick and make a 50 yard field goal with very little time left (from midfield where you recovered the onside kick)

    B. Kick field goal and have even less time to go 50 yards for a touchdown (you didn’t think you could make from 10 yards. )

    Of course everything has to be successful to work. I know I must be missing something since McVay is smarter than me at this, but I dont understand it.

    What makes a touchdown easier from 50 yards away with less time than an attempt 10 yards away? Seems a firld goal is perfect for the 50 yards away scenario ?
