Too many times, I have seen the QB take a knee on 3rd and short, with over a minute to go in the game. Why does this occur? Shouldn't this be a running play to gain the first down instead, and then punt on 4th down?
The end result of one of these happenstances, was a punt return for a touchdown basically the game winner. Not like going for the first down on 4th and short, this is taking a knee on 3rd and inches. This can't be feasible.
Make the 3rd down and short kneel downs occur only when the time is guaranteed to run out (opponent has no time outs left).
