I tried arguing this with my GF when she saw me make a comment in the game day thread about it. Huge mistake on my part.
"Why should he go down?"
"Because then Seattle can take 3 knees and end the game"
"But he scored a TD..."
"Yeah, but look what happened. NO got the ball, scored a TD, did a successful onside kick and were ~30 yards from a another TD to possibly tie the game. If Lynch goes down, they take three knees, end the game, and NO never gets that close."
"But why wouldn't he want to score a TD"
