Good lord, you really know how to butcher the English written word. It would've been a good idea if we had Ben or a proven veteran Coach, I will say that. In that typical scenario, you are absolutely right.
However, they were relying a rookie who never started an NFL game before. And we were up 21 points, going into the half with a comfortable lead and knowing we were getting the ball back to start the second half. If we were to try a drive with little time and a rookie making his first start trying to run hurry-up and something (anything) went wrong, we give the Chargers momentum and that locker room of theirs during the half is feeling a lot better than they would have being down 3 scores. End of story.
It was the wise decision to make and I don't know how many ******* people need to explain this to you to get it through that thick ******* skull.
