Yeah this. If the QB gets sacked on the first series of the first possession, the game is basically over. They're out of FG range, so the other team will just go out and kick a FG on the first play - or just do 2 junk inside run plays up the middle to line up the spot - since where they start is already in range. Starting somewhere between from your own 40-55 yard line would be ideal.
