It was an incredibly ballsy call. 99.9% of the time, coaches call for the field goal in that situation. Less of a risk to play the percentages, and take your chances in overtime.
Like I said, it's easy to say that was the call to make. But if we're sitting here 4-4 because LJ couldn't punch it into the endzone, damned near every one of us would be calling for the heads of this coaching staff.
Huevos gigantos.

Though you might be right, I know both my son, daughter and I were screaming for them to go for it and not kick the field goal. I even remember saying out loud that I would rather lose than kick the field goal under these circumstances.
