I hate this long field goals with time on the clock, you give up so much field position when you miss, and you miss more than 50% of the time.

Totally agree, and the difference between being up 10 and 7 is sooooo much bigger than 13-10.

How so? Even if he misses 55% it has to be +ev.

Because if you make it you are still up two scores either way, and if you miss there is a great chance of being up only 1 score when you forced 4 to's in first half.

OK IMO that is just nonsense. 1possession/2possessions... who cares about # of possessions at this point? You're acting like there's 5 minutes left. Do you go for it on 4th&10 in the 2nd Qtr down 13 because "you're still down 2 scores" w/ a FG?
