Guys, this is the same guy that has 3 TDs in the past 2 games....hes allowed to run it out. Offensive players suck at tackling and its a possible huge play. That possible reward is worth the 15 yard loss.

100,009 and counting

No you're not taking into account the difficulty of starting on the 5, or the chance of fumbling it again. It's a no brainer play to take the knee, and all his coaches would say as much.

Huh, I would have thought it was a no-brainer to always take it out pretty much no matter what. The reward>>>the risk. I think you guys are being sort of results oriented. How often does he not get it past the ten or so?

No it's not at all results oriented. Starting at the 20 is a clear advantage when you're in your own endzone and it's not a situation where you jump the ball. Why do you think you frequently take a knee on a kickoff ? Those guys aren't even close to you yet, and you decide it's not worth the break out. In this case you're already surrounded by guys. You kneel. Starting at the 1-5 in the nfl is super tough. Starting at the 20 is a big advantage.

Because they are a kick coverage team and not a bunch of offensive players who dont know whats going on?

They knew enough to stop him at the 5....

These are still all pro guys here...

LOL, I apologize for calling you results oriented.
