Even if that's true, then MAYBE 4.6-something Trent Taylor gets the edge before someone else on the defense does.
McPherson with an actual longsnapper instead of Wilcox makes that FG 99/100 times.

You don't take the 3 points when its 4th and inches at the KC 4. You just don't. Not against KC.
And Andy Reid knew you don't take the 3 points when facing the Bengals. He went for it on 4th and goal from the Bengals 3.
They had 49 seconds to do down and score a field gold or touchdown regardless, and they didn't. The only difference is the Bengals didn't get 3 points.
What you don't do against KC is pass up points. Can't turn 3 points into 0.
The Chiefs are 8/10 on 4th down this year, best in the NFL.
The Bengals are 2/10 on 4th down this year, worst in the NFL.
