If Herbert's in his 2nd year, they go for it. Hell, if Taylor was in they might have. But I think Lynn was genuinely concerned about a play break-down or complete mix-up in the transmission that would've effectively ended the ballgame.
Yes, a veteran QB and a team in mid-season form has a high probability of converting. But a kid who's never played an NFL game and wasn't even taking starters snaps in a limited pre-season (or weekly game-plan install) isn't a given by any stretch.

I think if Taylor had played the Chiefs would have won easier overall.
