If the Denver receiver had been tackled on the 15 yard line for example. Instead of the game being over, Denver has a dilemna. Play conservative for a FG or go for the win. Going for the win involves risk and maybe a turnover.

I heard that explanation, but it makes no sense to me. So what if you score a FG, or score a TD in one play? Both teams should get a crack, eliminating any element of random luck (no matter how small).
