Declining leaves it at 3rd down and the clock starting at the snap. If they hold then the 4th down play is with 1 minute left. If they get a stop on 4th or they punt Bengals have just under a minute to get a winning TD.
Like I said, I’d probably still take Burrow with any amount of time remaining versus trusting the defense with 3rd and 4. I guess the coaches had more confidence in the defense somehow.
