Which is totally realistic as the game shifts to being more and more geared towards offense. Did you lose the coin toss against the Patriots, Saints, or Chiefs? Congratulations, you most likely just lost the game.
I fail to see the harm in allowing the other team a possession to match the touchdown, especially since the game is pretty much guaranteed to be an exciting one if it's made it to that point.
