Yeah it's just not the right call. Even if you make it they are in 4 down territory starting from their 30. Probably 75% likelihood they go down for the FG to tie, and of that 75% they score a TD some of the time.

At least if you punt, you only give them 3 downs to work with and you have all your timeouts.

All that said, it's a QB and an offense league. Can't win scoring 0 points in a half and when you need a first down to win the game, when the defense should be tired, you go out and get it.
