The botched hold could have happened even if we went all the way down to the 20 and tried the kick: NO ONE has brought this up, just attacked Zac, because no one thinks of all scenarios, just what they're angry about.

You’re right it could have happened at the 20 the same way, but our record of trying to win in OT with a FG during the Taylor era is pretty bad at this point. We lost the Packers and Steelers OT games with failed kicks, too. And then there was the 9ers game. Zac tends to get conservative in OT even when the offense is cooking. That is where a lot of the frustration comes from.
