No sane team would run a run play there. They called the correct play, but if it isn't wide open, Ben MUST throw it into the third row of the stands and then they kick the FG and go into overtime.
A run play is all-or-nothing. They had no timeouts left -- couldn't stop the clock for the FG if they get stuffed. That isn't terribly smart football.
The mistake here was on Ben, not the coaches. Terrible decision.
Seattle SB was on the coaches, IMHO, FWIW.
