That's not "conservative", that is common sense.
Or at least go for easy completions, not for some hastily thrown out shots. Having an aggressive mentality is good, but being stupid is not.
Run three times give them the ball back and they score a TD and we are here today saying we tried to give the game away being conservative. To be frank fans simply like to second guess anything that doesn't work. No one would have said anything if we get the first down there throwing the ball. As to how we go about throwing, it comes down to what the coverage gives you.
