touchdown+2 point+onside+field goal in two minutes with no time outs when they hadn't scored a touchdown to that point and had a quarterback with an injured hand that was having difficulty just holding the ball much less throwing it...the game was over at that point either way
Tell that to Buffalo, week 5 of this year...when Dallas converted an onside kick with 20 seconds left in the game and went on to score the winning field goal.
It doesn't make any sense to give the ball to the opponent at all, too many chance for a flukey play or breakdown in the secondary...a 5 yard slant to TO can turn into an 80 yd TD catch and run and they are right back in it. Westbrook took away all doubt, which is what a smart player should always do.
