Would the Colts hold them scoreless and can they make a 2 point conversion? Probably not, but at the same time on that play you cut the number of possessions to two.

It's all a moot point though.

If they were down by 11, and a field goal cut it to 8, then I would agree. But being down by 18 points, I don't think that the field-goal is a no-brainer, for the reasons that I stated. It's just too large of a deficit to presume that everything would work out in their favor with the defense, which it didn't.
