Just a poor play call. Kicking there is playing not to lose which, more often than not, results in losing.
Really though even if you make the 1st down they have to then take an immediate time out and you have 20 seconds to run two plays (maybe 3) and the 2nd play being the FG if they don't get a TD on 1st down. I just didn't see the upside with the amount of time left on the clock as your offensive plays are limited with no time to work with.

OT is set up pretty well to get both teams a possession so the coin flip to me isn't a big deal. Like I said before all the Bills defense had to do was not let Henry run through them for a big gain and I would take those odds. I feel pretty strongly the Bills are 5-1 today if they kick the FG but they are 4-2 because the coach decided to risk the game on one play.
